Alec's Ice Cream Launches Culture Cup Nationwide; a Gut-Loving, Clean-Label, Low Sugar Ice Cream That's Almost Too Good to Be True
PETALUMA, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / May 14, 2025 / Alec's Ice Cream, the first and only A2 regenerative organic ice cream brand is challenging what indulgence looks like thanks to its newest product line: Culture Cup. This one-of-a-kind ice cream cup is a decadent treat under 160 calories and 10g or less of unrefined cane sugar. It features silky ice cream, over a billion raw live probiotics plus prebiotics, and a crackable dark chocolatey shell. Every Culture Cup is single-serve, snackable, and sustainably sourced while being a ridiculously delicious, ultra-clean-label indulgence that does the gut biome a solid.
This treat is high on function, low on guilt, and dangerously good. Each cup is made with grass-fed A2 dairy known to be easier on digestion and richer in nutrients like omega-3s and CLAs. Made without gums, sugar alcohols, seed oils, artificial flavors, or gluten-just real, clean, sustainably sourced organic ingredients. Since this is an Alec's Ice Cream product, 90% of the base ice cream ingredients are 3rd party verified regenerative, a revolutionary agricultural movement that works with nature versus against it. Culture Cup isn't just a sweet treat-it's a back-to-nature indulgence that's as kind to the planet as it is to you. A reminder to slow down, grab a spoon, and enjoy something truly special.
Finally, a snackable ice cream cup that's pro-gut, pro-planet, and wildly delicious-available in five absurdly craveable flavors:

"This year, real dairy is making a comeback and we're so excited to lead the charge with Culture Cup, which deliciously combines function, quality, and taste through animal-based nutrition that delivers real, impactful benefits," said Alec Jaffe, Founder of Alec's Ice Cream. "As gut-health continues to take center stage our pre/probiotic line serves as proof that our consumers don't have to compromise on taste, health, and sustainability-they can have it all."
Whole Foods Market, Wegman's, Fresh Thyme, Target, and other natural retailers will offer a selection of Culture Cup in stores at $9.49 for a 4-pack. Culture Cup is rolling onto shelves throughout May. To learn more about Alec's Ice Cream and its mission, visit alecsicecream.com or follow along on social @alecsicecream.

Clear Start Tax Warns 1099 Truckers: Unpaid Taxes Could Lead to License Suspensions and Seized Refunds
With IRS enforcement on the rise, self-employed truck drivers face growing financial and legal risks from unfiled returns and unpaid tax debt. IRVINE, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / August 1, 2025 / As IRS collections intensify in 2025, a growing number of self-employed truck drivers are facing serious consequences for falling behind on their taxes - including the suspension of commercial licenses and the seizure of federal tax refunds, according to a new warning from Clear Start Tax, a nationwide tax resolution firm. The warning comes amid increased scrutiny of 1099 workers and rising reports of enforcement actions that are disproportionately impacting independent contractors in industries like trucking, where many drivers are responsible for handling their own tax filings and payments. "Most 1099 truckers aren't trying to avoid taxes - they're just overwhelmed by inconsistent income, complicated deductions, and rising operating costs," said a spokesperson from Clear Start Tax. "Unfortunately, the IRS doesn't distinguish between intentional evasion and simple disorganization." Clear Start Tax notes that truckers with unpaid taxes or unfiled returns may see their CDL flagged during background checks or compliance reviews, which can jeopardize their livelihood. In some states, drivers have reported license holds or suspensions tied to unresolved tax issues. "We're seeing more cases where tax debt causes ripple effects: seized refunds, rejected loan applications, even blocked license renewals," the spokesperson added. "For truckers who rely on every mile to make a living, these disruptions can be devastating." To avoid penalties, garnishments, and potential enforcement actions, Clear Start Tax urges 1099 truckers to act early - by filing any missing returns, reviewing estimated tax payments, and exploring relief programs like the IRS Fresh Start initiative. "There are options to settle what you owe - often for less than the full amount - but waiting only limits what can be done," said the spokesperson. "Truckers shouldn't wait until the IRS pulls them off the road." About Clear Start TaxClear Start Tax is a nationwide tax resolution company that helps individuals and small businesses resolve IRS and state tax debt through proven strategies and personalized support. From unfiled returns to wage garnishments, the team specializes in helping taxpayers regain control of their finances with compassion and clarity. Need Help With Back Taxes?
