The age of just desserts has been replaced by the age of woke desserts, a world of substance-free sugary treats with the miraculous ability to rot both the brain and the teeth at the same time. The pioneers in this brave new age are, of course, ice cream moguls Ben & Jerry, who have routinely used their brand of decorative flavoring as a forum for virtue-signaling. Their latest ice cream flavor is the company’s most explosive yet: “Pecan Resist.”
“Today we launch Pecan Resist!” the company tweeted on Tuesday. “This flavor supports groups creating a more just and equitable nation for us all, and who are fighting President Trump’s regressive agenda.”
