AFAIK, they sell ice cream throughout the southwestern US. I'd hate to see them shut down for any reason.

I'd rather see the huge cattle operations close down, along with the land squandering water to grow hay for them. Water use for those industries is much heavier than it is for that ice cream plant. Some things just don't belong in the desert like big green lawns and large cattle operations.
