What You Should Know

You'll spot this pint in the grocery freezer aisle or pulled out at a casual get-together — a familiar indulgent dessert for movie nights, birthdays, or late-night cravings. It tastes rich and nostalgic with creamy texture and cookie chunks, while the long list of added sugars, syrups, emulsifiers and stabilizers signals industrial processing that delivers smooth scoopability and extended shelf life.
