I've never and will never buy B & J. They are on the wrong end of the spectrum and I will not support them in any way, shape or form. This incident doesn't surprise me in the least. Lockstep with George Soros.
Kerry is a great ice cream lover:

NATIONAL ICE CREAM MONTH

MR. KERRY. MR. PRESIDENT, ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL AND ENJOYABLE AMERICAN PRODUCTS RECEIVES ITS DUE NATIONAL RECOGNITION DURING THE MONTH OF JULY. THAT'S BECAUSE WE GET TO CELEBRATE JULY AS "NATIONAL ICE CREAM MONTH."
AS AN ICE CREAM LOVER MYSELF, I CAN ATTEST TO THE FACT THAT ICE CREAM HAS ACHIEVED A STATUS IN THE AMERICAN CONSUMERS' MINDS UNLIKE THAT OF ALMOST ANY OTHER PRODUCT. MANY PEOPLE CONSIDER IT A REWARD FOOD. OTHERS THINK OF IT AS A TREAT OR A PLEASURABLE INDULGENCE. SOME EVEN THINK THE COOL AND REFRESHING QUALITIES OF ICE CREAM ARE GOOD FOR COPING WITH STRESS AND ANGER.
ITS RICHNESS AND MARVELOUSLY VARIED FLAVORS AND FORMS ARE A TESTAMENT TO AMERICAN INGENUITY. OVER THE PAST 10-15 YEARS, THE ICE CREAM INDUSTRY HAS WITNESSED A REBIRTH IN ITS INNOVATIVENESS AS IT SEEKS TO MEET THE DEMAND FOR QUALITY PRODUCTS THAT AMERICAN CONSUMERS HAVE COME TO EXPECT. THIS IS ONE INDUSTRY THAT'S NOT ENDANGERED BY FOREIGN COMPETITION.
I AM PROUD TO POINT OUT THAT MASSACHUSETTS AND THE REST OF THE NEW ENGLAND AREA HAVE THE SINGULAR DISTINCTION OF BEING THE HIGHEST PER CAPITA PRODUCTION AREA OF ICE CREAM PRODUCTS IN THE COUNTRY. IN 1984, THAT FIGURE WAS 23 QUARTS PER CAPITA. COMPARE THAT TO THE NATIONAL PER CAPITA PRODUCTION FIGURE OF 15 QUARTS AND YOU CAN SEE WHICH AREA OF THE COUNTRY IS HELPING PROVIDE A LOT OF ICE CREAM FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. MY HOME STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS RANKS SIXTH IN THE NATION IN ICE CREAM PRODUCTION. MASSACHUSETTS ICE CREAM MANUFACTURERS PRODUCED NEARLY 47 MILLION GALLONS OF ICE CREAM IN 1984.
WE SALUTE THE ICE CREAM MANUFACTURERS IN THE UNITED STATES FOR THE DELICIOUS PRODUCTS THEY PRODUCE AND ALL OF US GET TO ENJOY.
I knew they were commie just from the names of their ice creams. I've never eaten them and never will.
