Coles bs ice creams

[RightorKhan]

I've now tried every single flavour of the coles ice creams now and can conclusively say they are indeed all s**t. Every single flavour. From the first scoop you can't ignore every ingredient being on a lower level to ice creams of comparative value.

I heard people actually like these ice creams and hype them up really well... what's the deal?

I am now again trying the "Choc Mocha" flavour and it is probably one of the shitter of the flavours. Ice cream so cheap I can taste ice particles through it, cheap cotties chocolate topping (aka corn syrup), biscuit bullshit with no flavour. The quality of ice cream in all the flavours is just terrible. Thin watery crap.

I just keep buying these crap flavours trying to find some sort of nicety to them. But alas they are just too cheap and overpriced to enjoy.

I wouldnt have needed to taste them to tell you that. Now think of all the money you have wasted on cheap s**t icecream, and the premium ice cream you could have bought with that money. For anything you are indulging in, don't cheap out, you'll just be left disappointed !!

Coles buttered popcorn is better than the 'name' brand one.

RIP Dairy Bell. I moved interstate and didn't realise it had shut down until you just mentioned it. Too many times I bought those jam donuts and a thickshake from the shop in Malvern East.

I can't speak about home brand ice cream but I used to work for a company that supplied home brand goodes to Coles and Woolworths (we just attached their labels) and the product we supplied them was higher quality than the named brands, they just bought the stuff in obscene quantities which significantly lowered the cost and eliminating a lot of the middle-men reduced the overall cost.

It is interesting that some home brands are noticeably inferior, would be interesting to produce a list of which products are as good as named brands and which and which are inferior.

Home brand stuff is pretty much always a gamble. Some of it is perfectly good if not better than the alternatives, others just flat out awful. Unfortunately the only way to find out is suck it and see.

Haha mate how much ice cream do you have to eat and how bored do you have to be to try every single flavour of Coles ice cream and then keep going?

I think there's 3 flavours. And they've been out for at least 6 months.

Its what happens when someone Coles freshes it.

 

[Norwood1878]

Golden North. Do you get that in your locale OP?

The Coles Peanut Butter ice-cream is great. No Connoisseur, sure, but it's less than half its price.
