Ben & Jerry’s to offer free vegan ice cream for one day only

International ice-cream giant Ben & Jerry’s will be offering up free vegan scoops this April 9 as part of its annual Free Cone Day.

According to the brand, the special day, which is exactly what it sounds like, is part of a long-standing tradition.

The event Facebook page reads: “Since 1979, it’s our way to celebrate and say thanks to our awesome fans for another year of support, and we’ve kept it up every year since, spreading the peace, love and FREE ice cream around the world!”

“Enough with the sentimentality,” you might say. “Where’s the ice cream?”
