French vanilla ice cream

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 5 ingredients to avoid

Breyers French vanilla ice cream scores 10/100 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. 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.

Breyers French vanilla ice cream lists 15 ingredients, starting with Milkfat and Nonfat Milk, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup, Sugar and Sweet Cream Buttermilk. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 10/100 Breyers French vanilla 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.
