We Scream, You Scream,We All Scream For Ice Cream Frozen Dessert!!!…uhhh wait a minute….what?
There should be a BAD EATS Section, but I figured this was the correct place to forewarn people of the evils of marketing and “dairy” companies…I use the term “dairy” loosely here…
Type of Cuisine: Frozen Dessert? Where did this come from? What the hell!?!
Frozen dessert is the generic name for desserts made by freezing liquids, semi-solids, and sometimes even solids. They may be based on flavored water (shave ice, sorbet, snow cones, etc.), on fruit purées, on milk and cream (most ice creams), on custard (frozen custard and some ice creams), on mousse (semifreddo), etc. In the UK and Ireland, where the term “dessert” is uncommon, frozen desserts are referred to as “ices”.

That Totally Looks Like Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream...but it's NOT!
Ok here’s my question, what is something that looks like Ice Cream, tastes like Ice Cream, packaged like Ice Cream, placed in the Ice Cream Section among REAL ICE CREAM but doesn’t have the same texture as ice cream? Give up? It’s called FROZEN DESSERT…that’s right…whatever that ambiguous term means, that’s what it is…I’m sure it means something like…not enough cream or real ingredients to qualify it as real Ice Cream so we’ll call it Frozen Dessert…yeah…great idea…no one will know the difference! Another genius marketing idea…literally!
Breyers Ice Cream FAIL!!!
Where did you have it:
I bought it by accident, from a brand which I though made Real Ice Cream but I guess I was wrong…and now I will know what to look out for…I won’t buy this product again.
How much?: About $5-$6 for 2L of Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
Rate it 1 to 10 : Taste-wise it was perfect, but the texture was really off, it was foamy and airy…not like ice cream is supposed to taste like…it was like softserve ice cream in a box but softer than softserve…awful….felt like I was eating foam… this get’s a zero in my books on texture alone even though the flavour was right, I can only imagine what was on the ingredients list. It will haunt my dreams….
DON’T LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU!
Buy REAL ICE CREAM not FROZEN DESSERT!!!
I likes to food.
