I think the Breyers mint chocolate chip has remained the same. It's been one if my favorites for decades. I haven't had it since the summer and will be so disappointed if it's been altered.

So disappointed in ice cream options lately. I'm making dessert for Christmas at the inlaws and wanted to get some ice cream to go with brownies - could only find one kind that didn't come with artificial ingredients and corn syrup.

I agree with Harris Teeter All Natural. The Neapolitan is very similar and part of me likes the chocolate better than Breyers.

Bryers took homemade vanilla away and put vanilla bean back. So it's really buyer be ware! LOOK TO THE LABEL. Bryers still makes great ice cream; you just have to look for it. Thank-you Bryers!

I miss the old Breyers Mint Chocolate Chip. So good and I am not even an ice cream person! I will have to try HT Naturals.

Graeters is nothing like the old Breyers. Graeters is wonderful, but so thick and rich that the spoon gets a coating of butterfat on it. The old Breyers was much less heavy.

Will try the HT though. Are the ingredients limited to the basics?


HT PP here -- I 've only had the vanilla and the cookie dough kinds, so there's at least some non-basic flavors.

There's always HD and B&J.


This is what I buy for my kids too. I find it too sweet and wish there were some options out there that weren't so sugary, but since I don't shop at Harris Teeter the Turkey Hill Natural is the only brand I could find that doesn't have additives.
