Ben & Jerry's Mint Chocolate Cookie Ice Cream scores 17/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in, plus lab results from its product family, Ben & Jerry's US cookie dough & chocolate-bit pints. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Ben & Jerry's Mint Chocolate Cookie Ice Cream lists 17 ingredients, starting with Cream, Skim Milk, Liquid Sugar, Water and Sugar. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 17/100 Ben & Jerry's Mint Chocolate Cookie Ice Cream scores worse than most ice cream & frozen desserts we have scored. A higher-scoring option in ice cream & frozen desserts is Straus Family Creamery Organic Vanilla Bean Ice Cream at 100/100.
