Looks good! I love ice cream! And when I eat it I could care less about calories or fat content! But the more chocolate and nuts and stuff, the better!
And OMG it is the best store bought ice cream i have ever had!!! I am not a big ice cream eater since i am diabetic, but when i saw it in the store-i had to try it. soooo good!!!
I havent had ice cream that good before
All I can say is when Breyers was a Philadelphia institution(it started in Philly), they never would have made a "product" like that.
I haven't purchased Breyer's since they sold out to Borden because as soon as Borden purchased them they added a ton of garbage in their ice cream. There was a time Breyer's Vanilla was very good and had no gum in it. I can remember the day well when I picked up a 1/2 gallon of Breyer's and tasted it before knowing about this change and I knew as soon as it hit my mouth that it changed. I threw the 1/2 gallon out and never looked at Breyers again. I buy Haagen Daz.
Same here. I think ice cream makers add the gum to give it a clingier 'mouth feel' but it makes the whole thing syrupy. Try Aldi's premium vanilla. No junk (gum) in it.
Ben and Jerry's is full of gums and garbage. Never understood why anyone buys it? They have great marketing though and I guess if people just want sugar with gum it fits their needs. I think that company is lousy!
It's much like Starbucks and Whole Foods.
Those who frequent that crap are overly impressed with their own sense of self importance.
Why did the OP's post generate such an unwarranted barrage of negativity?
I actually try novelty ice cream/ice milk/dessert product flavors.
I agree! I've reintroduced ice cream into my diet after losing 25 pounds, and my roommate and I love to try new flavors.
Chocolate Peanut Butter is one of our standards. We prefer the Tillamook brand's version.
But lately, we've become enchanted with the Ben & Jerry's "Core" flavors. The Chocolate Fudge Brownie is glorious! I allow myself one large spoonful a day when I have a pint in the house, and it satisfies every one of my "cravings" - sooo good!
THe roommate also brought home a peanut butter cup flavor from Blue Bunny that had mini peanut butter cups with swirls of fudge and peanut butter included. Kind of blew my mind. I let myself have a big bowl of it on my birthday (you know, instead of cake) and it was totally worth it!
I don't get it either. It's really pretty mean spirited. That makes me sad - it starts to feel downright unfriendly at times. I don't know - maybe some of us aren't sophisticated enough to participate since we don't eat higher end stuff for lack of a better term. That's how the attitude comes across anyway, in my opinion.
I'll look for this at the store - bet husband would love it!
It wasn't directed at OP at all. OP, if you took offense, I am genuinely sorry. It's just that I'm fed up of seeing 1000 different combinations of the same boring ice cream flavors in the grocery store, all based on drab, earthy flavors like brownie, PB, chocolate, toffee, etc. There's just no choice or selection in the average North American grocery store. Private ice cream parlors are better but still hit and miss. There is one in my town that TRIES to be sophisticated but they ruin it by adding too much sugar to their ice cream.
I miss European-style ice cream.
Trust me, if there was enough choice to cater to all our tastes, I couldn't care less what someone else likes. But there is no choice.
Yeah..since I just had 5 teeth pulled last week, i am eating ice cream to ease the pain
