Ice Cream

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 3 ingredients to avoid

Breyers Ice Cream scores 54/100 on Tallow — our okay 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 Ice Cream lists 9 ingredients, starting with Milk, Cream, Sugar, Dutched Cocoa and Processed With Alkali. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 54/100 Breyers Ice Cream lands mid-scale — below the typical score in ice cream & frozen desserts, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in ice cream & frozen desserts is Straus Family Creamery Organic Strawberry Ice Cream at 100/100.
