Should Murphy’s do a pink ice-cream tub to support gay marriage?

Kieran Murphy of Murphy’s Ice-Cream Ireland is contemplating producing a pink icecream tub to support marriage equality, and is currently asking for feedback on the idea.  Head over to Ice-Cream Ireland to have your say.

I think it’s a great idea, I’m a big fan of active citizenship and using everyday items to raise awareness of issues.  And if Murphy’s were able to donate a small percentage of the profits to one of the organisations that are working on marriage equality, such as MarriageEquality.ie, that would be great too.

    Ben and Jerry’s did a similar one in response to Prop 8:

  2. I’m cool with it.
    (See what I did there?)

  3. I’m all for it! Would always support these actions

  4. Thanks so much for posting this! It’s amazing how positive the response has been.

  5. Great idea. I dont know about a pink tub though, people may confuse it with breast cancer? What about a rainbow one instead?
