America's Worst Ice Cream Brand Is Sold In Indiana

It's tough to think that any ice cream could be bad, but according to 24/7 Wall St, some brands are better than others for several reasons. They researched food websites, blogs, and vlogs and compiled a list of eight ice cream brands that received the worst reviews. And the top 3 'worst' are found at stores in the Hoosier state.

#3. Baskin Robbins

Coming in third for worst ice cream brand is Baskin Robbins. 24/7 Wall St. says reviewers were disappointed that the ice cream in your grocer’s freezer is different from what is sold in Baskin Robbins ice cream parlors:

The texture of store-bought Baskin Robbins ice cream was described as “weird” by one reviewer. This critic also noted a “weird aftertaste.”

#2- Kroger Deluxe

24/7 Wall St acknowledges that many Kroger brands can exceed the quality of name-brand competitors, but the ice cream brand falls short:

Our reviewers took exception to this brand’s “unnatural flavor.” Not surprisingly, the end result is an ice cream that tastes fake.

#1. Blue Ribbon Classics

Blue Ribbon ranks worse on the list of ice cream brands. According to 24/7 Wall St,

It was one of the lowest-reviewed ice creams in our survey, mainly because of its artificial taste and texture.

24/7 Wall St. adds that the highest-rated ice cream brands according to reviews include Tillamook, Häagen-Dazs, Blue Bell, and Ben & Jerry’s.

KEEP READING: 40 Real Indiana Towns with Quirky, Weird, and Funny Names

Outside the major cities, the Hoosier state is full of tiny little towns you've probably passed through on your way to one of those cities. Most of them are likely 100 to 150 years old, or older, and have been around far longer than the large metropolitan areas such as Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, South Bend, and Evansville. Typically, they were started by early settlers who found their way to the state and decided to make it home. Eventually, others would join them, and a community was formed. Over time, as the surrounding areas grew, most of them were folded into those areas and governed by the nearest city or county's governing body officially making them "unincorporated," meaning they did not have their own formally organized municipal government.

A scroll through Wikipedia's long list of unincorporated communities in Indiana shows several of them have names that by today's standards would be considered weird, quirky, or just downright right funny. These are my 40 favorities.

LOOK: Here's Why Indiana is Pretty Much the Best Place on Earth [As Told by Hoosiers]

Reddit user, u/youcanneverbanme recently asked their fellow Hoosiers in the Indiana subreddit what they liked about living here. The question received hundreds of responses and the vast majority of them were positive. Of course, there were some that were negative because there are sad people who are perpetually angry on the internet and want everyone to know it for some reason, but we won't concern ourselves with those. We want to focus on the good, and when it comes to the good, there's plenty of it to enjoy.
