Breyers Natural Vanilla icecream now tastes completely disgusting and not like real ice cream at all. Avoid it like the plague. I too had to through half of the carton out. I agree with the above.

All REAL ingredients to include vanilla in Haagen Dazs...gotta watch all these "natural" references. Breyers Vanilla lists all the ingredients and then says "natural flavors" not VANILLA which makes me think they are now using vanillin--a flavoring, not real vanilla. I think a class action suit against Breyers should be filed as they are misrepresenting their product...it can't be called vanilla if it doesn't contain VANILLA, it has to say "Vanilla flavored." Bet you Unilever is lying about the ingredients until they are forced to fess up...in the meantime, their loyal consumers are none the wiser, unless they have good taste buds or read the box now and then. If you want Unilever to make Breyers the way it used to be made, stop buying the inferior product. Money talks.

But in the last year or so has gone down the drain. Less Bing cherries and smaller pieces, B quality. Ice cream flavor is off as well as texture. It all started when they started adding air into it. People noticed but the flavor didn’t change much. Yet ! Not the same product it used to be. They have been changing the Quality thinking the public won't notice. Now it tastes poor trying to cut corners more concerned with profit than product quality. Very Sad. Tastes like cheap crap now. They can fool some of the people but not me. Will not buy it any more. Big disappointment. There not using the same extracts or fruits in the same quantities and quality – pure sugar cane I doubt it. Sweetness is off. Some people say it is too much other say not enough. Manufacturing not consistent. I say its just not pure sugar cane anymore. Doesn’t have that bright fresh taste anymore why I’m not sure. Tastes synthetic like milk added instead of pure cream and gum thickeners added to it to keep its texture creamy but tastes like crap. Tastes like putty now.

I hadn't had it in years because I have been making my own but I just wanted some fast and so I broke down and bought it. I was supposed to be French Vanilla. It was flavorless-truly it had NO flavor. Not even vanilla. It didn't occur to me to check the ingredients-which was my own fault in the manufactured food world-should have checked it before I bought it. It was positively the worst ice cream I have EVER put in my mouth! It has a horrible chemical after taste with a chalk like texture-what happened to the yummy vanilla bean? Where did the tara gum come from? I don't put it in my ice cream. The Breyer's was so nasty. The other family members tasted it and agreed. We could not eat it and just dumped it in the trash. Not buying that manufactured, processed stuff anymore. It is not the sweet, creamy product it used to be. The only choices now are to switch to organic, made your own, or just pass on ice cream. But I will never, ever buy that nasty, tasteless "product" again. Shame on me, I should have read the ingredient list. Words cannot describe how horrible that ice cream was. Never again!

Good bye Breyer’s “Natural” Vanilla, Hello Blue Bunny Premium all natural Vanilla Ice Cream. Ingredients: Milk, cream, sugar, skim milk, Grade A Nonfat dry milk, Egg Yolks, Natural Vanilla Extract and Vanilla Beans…period. No guar gum, carob bean gum, tara gum, carageenan, or any of those other nasty smoothing agents. The best mass produced vanilla ice cream on the market since the original Breyer’s Light Vanilla before they started mucking it up, and maybe better than that was (it’s hard to say, because they screwed it up years ago!) I used to HATE Blue Bunny Ice Cream, but they have come up with some pretty good ones lately. Even the ones that do have gums in them are better than anything Breyer’s makes now. St. Louis, MO.

A commenter informed me that the Breyers Natural Vanilla recipe was no longer as simple – tara gum had been added. Sure enough, I looked at the ingredients on the package and there it was. Since then, I have spent some time investigating this new addition to Breyers ice cream and will discuss my findings in a 4 part series. Today, in the first story of the series, I will outline the basics about tara gum and detail Breyers response to some questions I asked them. In the upcoming weeks I will post a taste test comparing Breyers All Natural Vanilla with and without tara gum, specify odd ingredients in other brands’ ice creams, and conclude with a story about the future of ice cream ingredients.
