Ben & Jerry's Secrets Revealed!

Okay, we're not really revealing anything we shouldn't. But, we can say your Tonic editors took a field trip to Burlington, Vermont this week to hang out with the team at Ben & Jerry's. (Long story -- they are wicked cool!)

The people there were incredible hosts: hospitable, wise, and caring. Sadly, your Smile File editor can't stop the voice in her head from screaming this particular fun fact we learned while on their campus:

Ben & Jerry's employees get to take home three pints of ice cream A DAY from work.

And yes, they do have an in-office gym with personal trainers for employees to use free-of-charge.

Now, if someone could just find out if there are any pints of Key Lime Pie left! Your Smile File editor can't find any!
