French Vanilla Ice Cream

Imorich · 160 ml / 90 g
18.6g sugar/ serving → 74% of adult daily limit
227kcal/serving

Sugar looks similar to a soda, but the real story is saturated fat — one serving alone is nearly half a young child's daily limit.

Ingredients worth knowing

Dairy Cream, Sugar, Milk Solids, Egg Yolk Powder, Vanilla Seeds (0.1%), Mono- and Diglycerides of Fatty Acids (INS 471), Guar Gum (INS 412), Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (INS 466), Locust Bean Gum (INS 410), Carrageenan (INS 407), Natural Vanilla Extract (0.06%) and Artificial Vanilla Flavour

Mono- & Diglycerides of Fatty Acids (INS 471)
Common emulsifier, generally recognised as safe. Can occasionally derive from partially hydrogenated oils — worth checking if trans-fat sensitive.
Guar Gum (INS 412)
Plant-derived thickener. Well-studied, low concern at food-use levels.
Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (INS 466)
Common stabiliser/thickener. Low concern at typical food-use levels.
Locust Bean Gum (INS 410)
Plant-derived thickener, similar profile to guar gum. Low concern.
Carrageenan (INS 407)
Seaweed-derived thickener. FDA/JECFA approved, but some researchers and consumer groups (CSPI) flag possible gut inflammation, especially degraded forms.
Artificial Vanilla Flavour
Synthetic vanillin, chemically similar to natural vanilla compounds. Considered low risk, though less "clean label" than real vanilla.

22.11g sugar/ serving → 88% of adult daily limit
226.77kcal/serving

Ingredients worth knowing

Fresh Milk (71%), Sugar, Brownie Crumbs (7.5%), Salted Caramel Sauce (5.6%), White Fat, Milk Solids, Edible Cookie Dough Crumbs (4.7%), Caramelized Cashew (3.8%), Cookie Crumbs (13.8%), Cocoa Powder (3%), Permitted Stabilizers (Mono and Diglycerides of Fatty Acids (INS 471), Guar Gum (INS 412), Sodium Carboxy Methyl Cellulose (INS 466), Carrageenan (INS 407)), Permitted Colours (Ponceau 4R (INS 124), Tartrazine (INS 102), Brilliant Blue FCF (INS 133), Sunset Yellow (INS 110))

Ponceau 4R (INS 124)
Synthetic red azo dye, one of the "Southampton Six" colours a UK study linked to increased hyperactivity in some children — requires a warning label in the EU.
Tartrazine (INS 102)
Synthetic yellow azo dye, also one of the "Southampton Six." Can trigger reactions in aspirin-sensitive individuals, alongside the same EU hyperactivity labelling requirement.
Brilliant Blue FCF (INS 133)
Synthetic blue dye. Generally considered lower-concern than the azo dyes (Ponceau 4R, Tartrazine), though still a fully synthetic colourant.
Sunset Yellow (INS 110)
Synthetic orange-yellow azo dye, another of the "Southampton Six" colours — same EU hyperactivity warning requirement as tartrazine and Ponceau 4R.
Mono- & Diglycerides of Fatty Acids (INS 471)
Common emulsifier, generally recognised as safe. Can occasionally derive from partially hydrogenated oils — worth checking if trans-fat sensitive.
Guar Gum (INS 412)
Plant-derived thickener. Well-studied, low concern at food-use levels.
Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (INS 466)
Common stabiliser/thickener. Low concern at typical food-use levels.
Carrageenan (INS 407)
