TBH I don't like their ice cream. However, this company always comes to the plate for their employees and the country. So I will still buy a pint here and there.
Their lactose free is good
But they aren’t good to their employees, paying below market rate and surveillance that puts Amazon to shame lets them have a lot more flexibility

Yeah, they lean on “Markdale is cheaper than Toronto”
You consider that being bad to their employees?
It doesn’t dispute anything I said
It also doesn't support anything you said. I was mainly commenting on how you consider Markdale being cheaper than Toronto being bad for their employees.
We started buying only Chapman's after talking to a trucker who delivered to them for years and had lots of great things to say about how they operated and the quality of ingredients. Myself, I think it's the best industrial scale brand available to us.
I feel the same, but after reading about how they have been being a stand-up Canadian company, I will continue to buy this through our troubling times.
BTW these premium flavors are actually quite good.
I'll give those a try!
