Honey Buns

Little Debbie released several ice creams featuring their most popular snacks in 2022, but they didn't get great reviews, especially the Honey Buns ice cream.
The sweet ice cream mixed with sugary glazed donut pieces and cinnamon icing swirl is too much for most people to handle. Moreover, many say the flavors taste artificial.

Breyers Cookie

Breyers Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough ice cream has poor reviews due to the lack of cookie dough. One buyer said, "It's just vanilla with occasional chocolate 'chips.'"

Swirl Gelato

Trader Joe's Chocolate & Vanilla Bean Swirl Gelato is not great. A Reddit user compared the texture to "those cheap little cups of ice cream with the wooden spoon."
Other reviewers lament the long list of unnatural-sounding ingredients. It's not too bad, but if you're expecting rich, creamy Italian-style gelato, you’ll be disappointed.

Great Value Vanilla Sandwiches

Great Value Vanilla Flavored Ice Cream Sandwiches contain many preservatives, and reviewers call their texture "spongy" and "like cardboard."

Baskin Robbins Daiquiri

Baskin Robbins Daiquiri Ice ice cream is pale green and sports a weird icy texture and slightly artificial flavor, likely because it doesn't contain any fat.
