These Delicious Food Brands Are Also Giving Back This Pride Month
Every year for Pride Month, all of our favorite food brands rally to support the LGBTQ+ community, and in 2023, they've really upped their game.
It's not just about gorgeous rainbow colors and incredible flavors—though there's also plenty of that here—as each of these brands is also putting their money where their mouth is to benefit incredible organizations. Hungry? Shop the great brands below to all support important causes all month long.
Coolhaus
Yes, Coolhaus's limited-edition Love Out Loud Sammie really is as good as it looks. The luscious ice cream sandwich features plenty of strawberry cheesecake ice cream sandwiched between two rainbow confetti sprinkle cookies, and it'll be available through July. The best part, though, is that Coolhaus is also making a $25k donation to GLAAD, to further the cause of LGBTQ advocacy and creating true acceptance through cultural change.

Every year, Skittles gives up its signature rainbow colors for Pride Month to allow the LGBTQ+ to shine further, and this year was no different. The candy giants also changed their packaging with work from five queer artists for their Skittles Pride packs, which will sell through mid-July. Plus, $1 from every pack sold up to $100k will also be donated to GLAAD.

The Habit
The Habit is one of our go-to's when we're craving a shake with a tasty burger, and their new limited-edition Rainbow Shake is here especially for Pride. With a vanilla ice cream base, this shake also includes rainbow cereal, with strawberry and passion fruit puree, plus blue raspberry syrup for good measure, and all topped with whipped cream and even more rainbow cereal. $1 for every shake sold, up to $50k, will be donated to the It Gets Better Project, an organization dedicated to uplifting and empowering queer youth everywhere.
Compartés
Compartés isn't just one of the most stylish and deliciously flavored chocolate bar companies around. They also give back to the LGBTQ+ community in a big way, and not just for Pride Month. Their Care Bears Rainbow Chocolate Bar is gorgeous, infusing white chocolate with strawberry, orange, lemon and blueberry flavors to create a full rainbow, and 10% of all sales from the bar go to Lady Gaga's Born This Way Foundation all year long.

Chipotle
Though we can't actually get a Chipotle burrito wrapped in a piece of stunning rainbow foil, the brand's Pride Edit on the Chipotle Goods website is the next best thing. It features a number of sleek cotton T-shirts with slogans celebrating pride, including the "Love what makes you real" tee below. For every $16 shirt sold, Chipotle will donate $10 to The Trevor Project, with a minimum donation of $15k.
