The company is known for its "31 flavors" slogan, with the idea that a customer could have a different flavor every day of any month. The logo includes a stylized "31" formed from the letters "B" and "R". The slogan came from the Carson-Roberts advertising agency (which later merged into Ogilvy & Mather) in 1953. The company has introduced more than 1,400 flavors since 1945, including the addition of vegan and non-dairy flavors in 2019. thumb|Interior of a Baskin-Robbins store in Ooltewah, Tennessee
