Today I found out Ben & Jerry’s has introduced a new flavour of ice cream: American Pie. By introducing this new flavour Ben & Jerry’s protests against the American government wich spend too much money on bombs and and too less in childs healthcare.  In an interview with the ANP, the Netherlands national news agency,  Jerry Greenfield explains the United States spends on a yearly base about 30 milliard dollars for maintenance of 10.000 nuclear bombs, however 20% of the American children are living in poverty. Although America is one of the richest countries of the world, not all children are insured for health care.
On the package of the American Pie icecream this vision is explained.

Way to go!!!!!! Children are our future, not bombs!!!
