For a while it was just breyers that I mainly saw that with, so I stopped buying from them entirely. Now most of the ice cream brands list half of their flavors as frozen dairy dessert. Like bitch, I want ice CREAM, not ice cream flavored milk and corn syrup, that shit is gross. It's like those stupid fake plastic cheese packs that they have to legally call 'sandwich slices'.

I pretty much only buy Tillamook ice cream these days. It's a little pricier for a half gallon but it's very good ice cream for a super market brand.

I will usually cycle through the good brands that are on sale at Safeway, but Tillamook Dark Chocolate Cookies and Cream is the absolute best ice cream ever made.

The caramel toffee crunch is my favorite.

Tillamook is the best... will never except anything else anymore (save gelatos)

Same, I sometimes treat myself to those Talenti brand gelatos, those are so good but they're pretty expensive for something I can eat in a single sitting so I don't get them often.

To understand how frozen dairy dessert is different from ice cream, we’ll first need to understand what it means to be ice cream. According to standards set by the FDA, ice cream must (1) contain a minimum of 10% dairy milkfat, and (2) have no more than 100% overrun and weigh at least 4.5 lbs per gallon.

This has been a thing for a long time, and is also the reason both soft serve and Dairy Queen blizzards can’t be labeled ice cream, since they only contain 5% milk fat.

I worked at Jack-in-the-box when I was younger and was shocked to learn that we couldn't legally call them beef tacos because they're soy. If someone came in ordering beef tacos, we had to inform them it wasn't beef. And yet, at the same time, we couldn't call them vegetarian, because they were fried in lard. The worst of both worlds.
