I can't ever remember if Breyers or Dreyers is the shitty one, so I always just buy Tillamook or Blue Bell.
Breyers is the shitty one, you can tell because they can't legally call it "Ice Cream". It is a "Frozen Dairy Dessert" as you can see on the packaging.
Dreyer's is the legit one, though capitalism is starting to work it's way in. (1.41L now instead of 1.66L; same price)
Breyers is good. Tillamook and Blue Bell are still better though.
Breyers USED to be good.
I just pointed it out under a different comment, but this isn't actually ice cream. It's a frozen dairy product, because they have fucked up the ingredients so much to cut down on cost they can't call it ice cream anymore.
Unilever bought it and fucked it up.
I used to love Breyers. Remember how their claim on a tub of ice cream tubs was 'only X ingredients'? Now it reads like a chemistry experiment and tastes similar.
Breyer's used to have ads specifically about how it was free from shitty ingredients. It only had cream, sugar, salt, and whatever the flavor was. Now, the list of ingredients is longer than on a shampoo bottle.
Well if the shampoo had half as many ingredients maybe it would taste better
i haven't heard of any of those apart from breyers and breyers isn't very good on my region at least. feels whipped into frozen foam to fill the container with like a quarter of the product, the only one other than nestle that gives me a mouth full of air and a teaspoon of liquid every bite that melts. If I don't let it melt it feels like I swallowed air after what would be over indulging by volume but not weight.
I was very unimpressed by Tillamook when I tried it cause I thought it was supposed to be good. I'm also not a fan of Blue Bell.
Which brands do you like? That's surprising.
Haagen-Dazs and Ben & Jerry's. Talenti is good too. Ben & Jerry's just has good flavor combos.
