Vanilla Ice Cream is how you separate the greats from the bads. When you have simple ingredients like vanilla, it must be high-quality, and mixed properly, else it don't taste great. So really, it ain't boring... because it's how you find out which company can actually make ice cream!

Breyers, it's worth noting, has "Ice Cream" and they also have "Frozen Dairy Dessert," and you can absolutely tell the difference when the stuff can't legally be called ice cream. The texture is just sadness in a tub.

This is why people think vanilla is plain. It's because too many vanilla ice creams really don't taste enough like vanilla

Where I live, the basic vanilla ice cream is usually bland, if you don't buy a really expensive tub. When I was a kid, the local store had 3L tubs of vanilla or trio (three separate parts of vanilla, strawberry and chocolate in same tub) from Euroshopper-brand (usually known for really low prices and low quality), but the vanilla was wayyyy better than the domestically produced "high end" vanilla ice cream. The price is not always a guarantee of quality. Most of the viewers know Euroshopper from Finnish energy drink-memes : D

Just remember, before we had Vanilla in any commercially viable sense, we frequently used Rose Water to flavor things. Imagine sampling 25 pints of Rose water ice creams. Vanilla revolutionized desserts not that long ago, and it's one of the most complex flavor compounds there is, yet somehow it is used to describe something as boring.

Now imagine that its blooms must be pollinated either by hand or a small variety of Mexican bee, and that each bloom only opens for one day a year. Now imagine the fruit of this orchid, a pod, being picked and cured, sitting in the sun all day, sweating under blankets all night for months until, shrunken and shriveled, it develops a heady, exotic perfume and flavor.

Gonna re-suggest a comparison I suggested a few weeks ago Sparkling Water. To keep it fair I’d keep it to basic just a few basic flavors (lemon/lime/grapefruit), but I’d like to see how brands like Waterloo/Spindrift/Kirkland…etc stand up to each other. And to see how unsweetened stacks up to sweetened.

Trader Joe's vs Whole Foods house brands, vs Vintage selzer

I'd like to see you do instant ramen comparisons!

Well it looks like I can live another week because THIS AMAZING SERIES HAS CONTINUED

It's very strange when people call vanilla boring. Especially when they compare it to chocolate. It actually makes no sense. People who think and call vanilla boring are just projecting.

Dang kinda sad Tilamook scored so low. They are my favorite brand out of what is available to me. but to be fair I dont ever get their vanilla even tho I do enjoy vanilla quite alot.

Tillamook "Old Fashioned Vanilla" >>>>>>>>>

Is Tillamook even sold outside of the PNW? I have no clue but since they didn't have it I'm guessing distribution is somewhat limited.

​@@yourmomlol3083 It's sold in Texas in the Gulf Coast so the reach has to be pretty wide.

I love vanilla ice cream. (Unless it's French vanilla, which is too sweet for my tastes) A great vanilla ice cream should be great on it's own, but, it won't conflict with any topping you decide to put on it.

A special episode of traveling to Texas to try both Blue Bell and Braum's flavored ice cream could be fun

Maybe a ranking of all cookie dough icecream would be cool

No

For anyone asking about why Blue Bell isn’t on the list, it’s really difficult to find in NYC (where I’m 99% sure they film).

@@generalnando5722 I checked the website and it was only sold in a handful of CVS pharmacies. Even then, some people say they sell out quickly. UPDATE: Found roughly 4-5 locations in NY, 4 in Manhattan... only one in Brooklyn (place where BWB is recorded per internet results).

Easy hack….Blue Bell supplies ice cream to Outback Steakhouse…that’s how you get it in NY and New England

My favorite is a midwest brand: Meijers Purple Cow Vanilla

It's just one McConnell's pint, Michael. What would it cost, ten dollars?

My grandma hates French vanilla, not because of the taste, but because of the vanilla specks. She says they look like fly specks! Lol!😂😂😂

I feel much the same about vanilla icecream as I do cheese pizza. What is a company worth if they can't do the basic, the essential, well? Umpqua french vanilla is my favorite, but its a bit of a local specialty. Very dense creamy texture and great flavor.

What's your local? Montana here, and Umpqua is also a fav here. I am glad they switched over to sealed containers over just fit-top lids though.

Not having blue bell in this ranking is an absolute crime…. Because it would’ve won.

I love how the ad in the video is for another Babish video

Well, you absolutely have to do chocolate ice cream now
