How did a Polish immigrant come up with a name like Häagen-Dazs? He was inspired by Jewish history: “The only country which saved the Jews during World War II was Denmark, so I put together a totally fictitious Danish name and had it registered,” Mattus told me. “Häagen-Dazs doesn’t mean anything. [But] it would attract attention, especially with the umlaut.”
Don't fucking make shit up. Hate these motherfuckers for what they are. You only delegitimize yourself and make people not listen to you if all you do is spread lies. The best weapon is the truth.
Nope, they wanted a name under which they could sell ice-cream at a premium, and realised that by putting a european name on ice-cream they could double their prices in North America and people would buy it as a good of conspicuous consumption. It’s long recognised as genius marketing.
No, it's literally the only actual ice cream left in supermarkets, look at the ingredients. Ben and Jerry's is pure kiked shit, but I actually like Hagen-Daaz

That's not at all what it says.

Thats just a cover story for what they really wanted, which was a name that would sell more ice cream.

Would you buy Goldstein and Schwartz's Cookies and Cream?

Also, it's low-tier ice cream like Ben & Jerry's and worth avoiding regardless.

No it isn't, it's the only major ice cream company that still uses simple ingredients.
