Citing tough times, Haagen-Dazs claims it was forced to downsize its ice cream pints: they will now be 14 ounces instead of 16. But to rival Ben and Jerry’s, a recession (or even depression) is no excuse for less ice cream. The company responded to the news by reassuring its customers: “Now more than ever, you deserve your full pint of ice cream.”
Thank you, Freakonomics for infoming me of this impending bullshit. I always prefer a good Phish Food to a good Dulche de Leche (that may have been a lie) but nothing can substitute for a delicious Haagen Dazs vanilla ice cream in my milkshakes. Stupid people.
