Worst Ice Cream Brands In America
They say that flavor, texture, and creaminess are the deciding factors on if ice cream is good or not. They also are not a fan of artificial ingredients. In fact, they suggest you look at the ingredient label when purchasing ice cream to find the fewest, natural ingredients. Ok, I can get on board with that. But does anyone use all-natural ingredients? Also, I don't want to pay $20 for a pint of ice cream. There's got to be some give here, right?

Kemps Is The 11th Worst Ice Cream Brand In America
According to 24/7 Wallstreet, Kemps is the 11th worst brand of ice cream in Minnesota. What's their beef with kemps? Kemp's is a go-to in the Midwest!
Kemps is headquartered in St. Paul, Minnesota. The brand has been around for over 100 years. They put Kemps on the list because of their artificial ingredients, citing the fact that they were involved in a class-action lawsuit for misleading advertising. It had to do with Kemps (and 120 other defendants) being sued because they advertised they used natural vanilla flavor. The courts eventually sided with Kemps, even though the vanilla didn't actually come from a vanilla bean.
I'm still eating my Kemps.
Natural ingredients or not, I'll still be supporting this historic Minnesota brand.
