CNNMoney: Disappearing bees threaten ice cream sellers
It’s one thing to casually notice that we, the human race, face extinction with a dwindling supply of honey bees, but more importantly, our ice cream flavors are so threatened that Baskin-Robbins may be forced to change it’s slogan to “19 Flavors.”
“Haagen-Dazs is warning that a creature as small as a honeybee could become a big problem for the premium ice cream maker’s business. Haagen-Dazs, which is owned by Nestle, said bees are actually responsible for 40% of its 60 flavors - such as strawberry, toasted pecan and banana split.”
