Haagen Daz was always my go to ice cream way back to when I first bought it in 1970. Having lived on 2 dairy farms, I have very high expectations for “iced cream”. H-D was a dense chewy creamy ice cream with the simplest ingredients. Over the years it got lighter in weight, then they shrunk the pint down to 14 oz.'s. So I stopped buying it because I just didn't like how they were screwing everyone out of greed. But then… at Aldi, I discovered “Specially Selected” Vanilla Ice Cream … and WOW, my expectations, after so many years, have been fulfilled!!! Its ingredients are as simple as it gets: cream, skim milk, sugar, pasteurized egg yolks and vanilla. Not like Ben & Gerry's which has water, guar gum and carrageenan! And even more surprising is the price!!! When looking for good ice cream, you really should be looking for the one with the simplest ingredients list. Aldi's “Specially Selected” Vanilla Ice Cream is everything a vanilla ice cream should be: thick, creamy and with a nice balance of sugar and vanilla. It's a 5 star buy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was great can't say I had ever tried this before was great tasting and smooth not bad at all will definitely be buying more found my new favorite treat and the grandkids even liked it and that's a plus for these picky kids.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my all-time favorite vanilla ice cream. It's not TOO sweet, but still a total indulgence. It's super creamy and feels & tastes like homemade! It's got a great flavor that works well with different toppings and is the perfect filler for homemade ice cream sandwiches!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hagan Das is the best vanilla ice-cream. It's perfect. So creamy and smooth. The perfect vanilla ice-cream. It's the perfect complement to cobbler and pie. It's great in a sundae, or perfect on its own.

I had been a lover of Haagen Dazs vanilla ice cream, the absolute best, for years. Over the last few months, however, I have been noticing that the quality, taste, texture, creaminess, meltability and smooth vanilla vanilla flavor, density, way the container is not compactly filled, has absolutely BROKEN MY HEART AND 100% DISAPPOINTED THE HOY OF EATING HAAGEN DAZS VANILLA ICE CREAM. What on earth are you doing??? You completely destroyed the best vanilla ice cream ever!! What would possess you to change such a perfect food??? I have stopped buying Haagen Dazs vanilla and now purchase vanilla ice cream from a local dairy. It is second to your original vanilla ice cream, but waaaayyyy better than the chemical taste of your new recipe, which is crap!! Shame on you!!!!!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this in vanilla and have to say it tastes better than homemade. Simple ingredients for a great icecream. There are so many flavors to choose from. The icecream is so smooth and creamy. Can not wait to try more flavors.

The taste of vanilla used to be pure perfection—so rich, sweet, and creamy, and always left me craving for more. Now the taste is bland and lackluster. With so many poor reviews I do not understand what is taking Haagen Dazs so long to return to the old formula. Please listen to your consumers, we do not want the new formula! I will pay more for quality, but since this newer and cheaper formula lacks quality, I will no longer purchase. I eagerly anticipate Haagen Dazs' apology for the formula change and its new campaign sharing that they have returned to the quality that was peerless in the ice cream world.

I just bought some Vanilla Swiss almond for the first time in a couple of years and the ice cream looked and tasted like the cheaper brands. It was no longer rich and Thick, it was full of air and icy.
