deathrey Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 The middle bit in Feasts has definitely gotten smaller. They are a favourite of mine, I love the originals and the mint ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel that way about Mini Milks, I've had a lifetime worth. I feel the same way about Ribena, can't stand the stuff as it's all my mum used to buy and we would have it constantly. The only thing I have that level of visceral reaction to is penne pasta. Still can't stand it to this day even though I'll happily eat the same pasta in any other shape.

SuperBacon Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I could've sworn we had a "Brand wars" thread but I can't find it. Anyway, I bought some Haagen Dasz the other day for the first time in ages and it was crap. It used to be the apex of ice creams in the 90s, but Ben & Jerry's is infinitely superior, and has way more choice. It was Cookies & Cream as well, but yeah, it's crap.

deathrey Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 See, I think Haagen Dasz is a more grown up, less sugary ice cream. It has its place as does Ben & Jerry's. Ben & Jerry's is like a meal, it's a heavy ice cream with lots in it, Haagen Dasz is a bit more refined and I only really have it as a dessert. My biggest criticism of Haagen Dasz is that they do some amazing flavours that are not widely available - the dark chocolate almond is really great but only available as mini in the chocolate collection (which has now been discontinued).

SuperBacon Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I was so underwhelmed by it and it tasted markedly different to how I remember it. I love a daft gimmick food so maybe that's why I prefer Ben & Jerry's, as they just tend to throw loads in their tubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathrey Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 They do, it's the kind if ice cream I would have made when I was 15 and couldn't make my mind up as to what should go in it. That said, I'll be tucking in to a small tub of Chocolate Fudge Brownie tonight. My new favourite is the Vermonster Sundae, that is diabetes in a tub and stupidly expensive but I pick it up whenever I see it on offer.

The Haagen Dazs was £3, the B&J £5.50!!! I have this quite often. Its unremarkable but at £2.30 for a massive tub, you can't really go wrong.

TheScarlettChad Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I love the gimmicky Ice Creams. Give me a Flump Ice Cream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members gmoney Posted August 10, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 10, 2023 Haagen-Dazs Salted Caramel is incredible stuff. I can't really let myself have it anymore because I'll eat a tub a night for weeks if I let my guard down. No other flavour come close, and I find most Ben and Jerrys pretty wank if I'm honest. I'm not a fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 People who think Ben and Jerry’s is better than Haagen-Dazs are probably the same people who think McDonalds is better than Burger King innit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair I do think Haagen-Dazs is superior Ice cream but I’m also a disgusting man child who enjoys sweets and cakes in his ice cream so will often opt for B&J, especially at the cinema. You ever try the disgusting soggy crisps one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
