Ben & Jerry's Announces Non-Dairy Ice Cream
Ben & Jerry's

Listen up dairy-haters:

Ben & Jerry's has recently announced that they have created a new line of their famously unique and delicious ice cream in non-dairy pints.

The new Ben & Jerry's non-dairy ice cream is certified vegan and made with almond milk so that people can eat it and not experience the negative effects that come from eating regular dairy ice cream.

If you are a vegan or dairy doesn't sit well with you, this is a holy-cow big deal.

The non-dairy flavors include Chocolate Fudge Brownie, P.B. & Cookies, Chunky Monkey and Coffee Carmel Fudge. Each flavor is made with almond milk to ensure a creamy texture while also including the famous chunky mix-in's such as cookies, brownie pieces and fudge. The research and development process for the non-dairy line took about three years.

Not only are the flavors dairy-free, but they are also certified vegan through Vegan Action (http://vegan.org). Vegan Action is an organization that works on vegan certification, education and labeling. You can rest assured that none of the ingredients in the new non-dairy ice cream contain any traces of animal products.

You don't have to be vegan to choose a non-dairy pint of Ben & Jerry's. Because the base of the ice cream is almond milk instead of regular milk, the ice cream is naturally a little bit healthier. Now you can eat more ice cream in one sitting to reward yourself for making the healthier choice.

The ice cream is not only dairy-free and certified vegan, but it is also made from Fair-trade and non-GMO ingredients. This stuff is pretty much made from angels.

The company claims that the development of a non-dairy ice cream is the result of high customer demand. With 16 million people in the United States now identifying as vegan, the non-dairy ice cream market has been left virtually empty.

Don't flock to the grocery store yet; distribution is said to slowly roll out in grocery stores in the next four to six weeks.

While four to six weeks may seem like forever, I think we can all wait that long for a product that took three years to make. The company is claiming that the ice cream will still have a creamy texture and huge chunky add-ins.

Eat up, dairy haters, we have been waiting for this.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
