This Cork guy has turned his disappointing Brunch post into a brilliant local charity donation

Remember the Corkman’s impassioned post about his Brunch ice cream that took off on Facebook?

Well, he’s managed to translate the buzz around it into helping out a very worthwhile cause.

After HB got in touch with him to see what they could do about the sprinkle deficit, Darryl Connell cleverly decided to see if they would be willing to make up for it by donating to Cork’s Penny Dinners.

And they were in.

According to Darryl, HB have promised to send not only Brunchs but also tea and soup to the Cork City charity which helps out anyone in need of a meal .

Here’s Darryl’s update in full:

"HB have been in touch with me and they, along with Unilever (their parent company) have really really kindly agreed to donate Brunch’s, Lyons tea and Knorr soup to Cork Penny Dinners!!! This is such a generous thing for HB to do and it’s great to see such a large company helping out like this!

"As an ice cream lover and faithful Brunch fanatic, it has been disappointing to have experienced a brunch with such a lack of sprinkles, however this kind gesture, along with they’re promise to look into and to hopefully sort the sprinkle issue, has made it just a little bit easier for me to forgive HB and to continue to enjoy they’re delicious ice creams!

"I wish to thank everyone for they’re support on this pressing issue and I hope that we can all look forward to enjoying many more Ice creams in the future! I will keep ye updated on hopefully what will be a great outcome! Thank you... an honest young fella enjoying his Brunch!"

We have to hand it to Darryl, that was nicely done.
