"YES PECAN! An Inspirational Blend! Amber Waves of Buttery Ice Cream With Roasted Non-Partisan Pecans."
Ben & Jerry's is renaming its butter pecan flavor "Yes Pecan," honoring the president-elect's campaign theme "Yes, We Can."
Newsday is reporting that the company is partnering with Common Cause, a nonpartisan, nonprofit advocacy organization founded as a vehicle for citizens to make their voices heard in the political process. Proceeds associated to the sale of "Yes Pecan" will go to Common Cause's Education Fund.
"Common Cause is excited to work with Ben & Jerry's to spread a spirit of activism and optimism that we believe can make our government work for the common good as it tackles the big issues of the day," said Common Cause chief executive Bob Edgar. "An engaged citizenry is crucial for a healthy democracy."
