What You Should Know

You’d typically find this Talenti Pacific Coast Pistachio pint in the grocery freezer aisle or pulled out as a creamy dessert after dinner or during a cozy movie night. It reads indulgent and slightly nostalgic with a smooth, spoonable texture — but the ingredient list (added sugars like dextrose, stabilizing carob bean gum, and natural flavors) signals industrial formulation to ensure consistent creaminess and flavor, a hallmark of ultraprocessed frozen desserts.
