Tillamook has a weird fluffly texture and would be good otherwise. I haven't had Breyer in a while, but recall that is used to be good. The Ultra Premium, or whatever dumb name it has, at Aldi is good.
Breyer’s has become an unrecognizable watery filth
It's a shame because they used to be pretty good a few decades ago.
Yeah. They used to be the OG good stuff. No more. 😢
Prior to 2006, Breyers was known for producing ice cream with a small number of all-natural ingredients. In recent years, Unilever has reformulated many of its flavors with nontraditional, additive ingredients, significantly changing the taste and texture of their desserts as a result. Following similar practices by several of their competitors, Breyers' list of ingredients has expanded to include thickeners, low-cost sweeteners, food coloring and low-cost additives — including natural additives such as tara gum and carob bean gum; artificial additives such as maltodextrin and propylene glycol; and common artificially separated and extracted ingredients such as corn syrup, whey, and others.
That's disappointing.
I bought Tillamook because their cheese is good and I thought they'd make other good dairy. It seems like a rip off though. It's fluff, so it weighs nothing. A serving of Tillamook has 30% less ice cream than a serving of regular stuff - 95 grams in 2/3 cup compared to 136 grams in 2/3 cup. The ingredient list isn't as bad as others, but it's got some odd stuff. In comparison, the Aldi stuff is just straight ice cream.
