Ben & Jerry's is famous for its unique flavor combos, celebrity collaborations, and punny names. However, this is not widely known about the company's connection to late Paul Newman, who famously donated 100% of the after-tax profits of his products to charity. In 1998, Newman's Own Ice Cream was launched with an assist from Ben & Jerry’s, and all post-tax profit from the product was donated to charity, with over $600 million in charitable giving. The company also has a unique connection to the band Phish, which donated over $9 million in ice cream royalties and fan contributions through its foundation.
