It\u2019s so simple, delicious, and versatile. What else pairs so well with everything from apple pie to coffee?? (Okay probably chocolate ice cream, but let&#8217;s stay focused.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although I\u2019d love it if I were in a season of life where I could always whip up a batch of homemade vanilla ice cream whenever the craving strikes, alas, I am not. Thankfully, we live in a day and age where we can buy ice cream, already made, at the store. Marvelous! And vanilla ice cream seems pretty hard to mess up. After all it&#8217;s just milk, cream, sometimes egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla beans or vanilla extract, right? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"http:\/\/yetanothermomblog.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2197\" srcset=\"http:\/\/yetanothermomblog.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/yetanothermomblog.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/2-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/yetanothermomblog.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/2-768x512.jpg 768w, http:\/\/yetanothermomblog.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, http:\/\/yetanothermomblog.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/2-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, that sort of simplicity seems to be difficult to achieve for many ice cream brands. Sure, they use the traditional ingredients, but they also use some questionable ingredients as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make shopping for the most healthful vanilla ice cream easier, I\u2019ve compiled a list of the all-natural ice cream options made from <strong>only<\/strong> natural ingredients (milk, skim milk, cream, eggs, sugar, vanilla beans, vanilla extract) and NOTHING else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What exactly does all natural vanilla ice cream mean?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While everyone has their own definition of all natural, in my opinion, the very best all natural vanilla ice cream does NOT contain any of the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Added flavors, both <a href=\"https:\/\/deeprootsathome.com\/beware-of-the-label-natural-flavors-the-sneakiest-of-chemicals\/\">\u201cn<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/deeprootsathome.com\/addictive-flavors-foods-to-avoid\/\">atural\u201d<\/a> and artificial<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ultra processed ingredients (ie: corn syrup, soy lecithin, sunflower lecithin, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thehealthyhomeeconomist.com\/milk-powder\/\">milk powder<\/a>, possibly tapioca syrup)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gums (ie: guar gum, locust bean gum, xanthan gum, as all gums <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thehealthyhomeeconomist.com\/xanthan-guar-locust-bean-tara-gellen-gum\/\">seem to affect gut flora<\/a>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Seed oils (ie: sunflower oil, canola oil)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In my opinion, all of the above ingredients are recent additions to our historical diets as humans, and although they&#8217;ve been deemed &#8220;safe&#8221; (as in, not immediately toxic) to use in the American food system, we don&#8217;t know for certain the long term effects of consuming them. So why risk it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus, the simple fact is that you don&#8217;t need ANY of them to make vanilla ice cream. Not a one. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Many ice cream brands do not make the cut<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If we narrow down our choices to those that ONLY use the simplest of ingredients, we eliminate a lot of the more accessible brands, like <strong>Blue Bunny <\/strong>(contains natural flavors in their ice cream, and even more suspect ingredients in their \u201cfrozen dessert\u201d), <strong>Great Value<\/strong> (contains natural flavors, gums, cellulose), <strong>Blue Bell <\/strong>(contains high fructose corn syrup, natural flavors, gums), <strong>HEB Creamy Creations<\/strong> (contains Fructose, Dextrose, Natural Vanilla Flavor, Natural Flavor, Carob Bean Gum, and Guar Gum), <strong>Turkey Hill\u2019s normal line<\/strong> (contains corn syrup, cellulose gel, cellulose gum, natural and artificial flavors, mono &amp; diglycerides, carrageenan), <strong>Breyers <\/strong>(their \u201cNatural\u201d vanilla flavor contains vegetable gums and natural flavors), and I&#8217;m sure even more. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, several brands that tend to market themselves as higher quality do <strong>not<\/strong> meet these requirements either. <strong>Alden\u2019s<\/strong> (contains Tapioca Syrup, Tapioca Starch, Guar Gum, Soy Lecithin, Locust Bean Gum, and Xanthan Gum), <strong>Alec\u2019s <\/strong>(contains carob gum, guar gum), <strong>Adirondack Creamery <\/strong>(contains milk powder, which <em>sounds<\/em> like it\u2019d be a natural ingredient, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thehealthyhomeeconomist.com\/milk-powder\/\">but it\u2019s not<\/a>), <strong>Tillamook <\/strong>(contains gums, natural flavors), and <strong>Harris Teeter\u2019s <\/strong>(contains \u201cnatural vanilla flavor with specks\u201d (specks??)) all fail to make the cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(To their credit, Adirondack Creamery seems to both steer clear of added flavors and gums, which is awesome of them and a step in the right direction.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And as an aside to my sweet vegan and non-dairy friends, take it from me, someone who was vegan for 4.5 years and has always loved ice cream: the non-dairy ice cream market is LOADED with weird additives. I have not found a single one that does not include the questionable ingredients listed above. Your best bet is going to be homemade non-dairy ice cream, banana &#8220;nice cream&#8221; or otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Amazingly, there are some brands that have all natural vanilla ice cream options that do fit the bill. Let&#8217;s look at them now.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Very Best All Natural Vanilla Ice Cream: Straus Family Creamery<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Straus Family Creamery makes an exceptional all natural vanilla ice cream.
