The Pecan Resist meme stems from Ben & Jerry's 2018 release of a limited-edition chocolate ice cream flavor designed to resist the Trump administration's regressive policies. The pint's artwork, created by activist Favianna Rodriguez, became a flashpoint for digital discourse, ranging from genuine support for social justice to satirical critiques of corporate virtue signaling. On the internet, the template is often used to highlight the intersection of consumer products and political activism, or to poke fun at how even the simplest snacks can become centerpieces for heated social debates.
