- Vanilla doesn't always have to mean "boring." Unfortunately, for some of these ice cream brands, it still does.

Vanilla Ice Cream is how you separate the greats from the bads.
When you have simple ingredients like vanilla, it must be high-quality, and mixed properly, else it don't taste great. So really, it ain't boring... because it's how you find out which company can actually make ice cream!
exactly its the base line. I explain this so often to my friends as to why i like vanilla.
100% agree. Why B&J's wasn't at the top is baffling to me. I've always held their ice cream in high regards and think it tastes far superior to Edys.
Every Italian will tell you the same: first pizza in a new pizzeria? Go with margherita, and be a harsh judge.
It's the cheese pizza of the ice creams. The baseline. The proving ground for the who's who.
Breyers, it's worth noting, has "Ice Cream" and they also have "Frozen Dairy Dessert," and you can absolutely tell the difference when the stuff can't legally be called ice cream. The texture is just sadness in a tub.
This is why people think vanilla is plain. It's because too many vanilla ice creams really don't taste enough like vanilla
Where I live, the basic vanilla ice cream is usually bland, if you don't buy a really expensive tub. When I was a kid, the local store had 3L tubs of vanilla or trio (three separate parts of vanilla, strawberry and chocolate in same tub) from Euroshopper-brand (usually known for really low prices and low quality), but the vanilla was wayyyy better than the domestically produced "high end" vanilla ice cream. The price is not always a guarantee of quality. Most of the viewers know Euroshopper from Finnish energy drink-memes : D
it upsets me far more than it should when people talk about vanilla stuff like it's the "plain" flavor, a blank canvas. Vanilla is fantastic
vanilla is suprisingly expensive
Whatever makes you feel better about being vanilla in bed
Isn't that kind of the point though? Vanilla is meant to be the base for ice cream creation. It's the blank canvas.
If anyone didn’t know, Ben and Jerry’s ice cream has so much stuff in it because Ben has anosmia, no sense of smell. So texture is very important. I love chunky ice cream and different flavors, so I go hard for B&J’s
Ben and Jerry's is now owned by Unilever and is not the same.
@@angelwild5665 I haven’t noticed a difference in the quality, unless Unilever took over 14+ years ago
@@angelwild5665 It’s still the same, nothing changed.
Ben & Jerry's is also my favorite brand of Ice Cream. So many interesting, delicious flavors!
its also over 1000cal for a pint of ice cream, but yeah sure keep going hard for BJs😏
Just remember, before we had Vanilla in any commercially viable sense, we frequently used Rose Water to flavor things. Imagine sampling 25 pints of Rose water ice creams. Vanilla revolutionized desserts not that long ago, and it's one of the most complex flavor compounds there is, yet somehow it is used to describe something as boring.
It's described as boring because it's in tons of desserts, and it's expensive so they tend to skimp on it. It's like comparing regular Hershey's chocolate to a super fancy 90% cacao chocolate that costs $20 per bar.
Rose is a criminally underappreciated flavor though. There's nothin' at all wrong with spices and florals but everyone's palate's just gone sideways on sugar.
For those wondering "No Blue Bell", the company only distributes to 23 states. New York (Where babish lives) does NOT stock it all year round, and when they do they dont get much, it sells quickly. It is likely that it simply wasnt time to stock it where he lives or that it is sold out.
Thank you, I was curious.
He has a company just have it shipped to you from someone in another state!
(Still not an excuse.)
Blue bell isn't that great anyway tbh
@@michaellooks8397 where else are you gonna get that Listeria twang
No Blue Bell?
IKR?!
I was literally about to post, "Oh boy, wait until people from Texas watch this and see Blue Bell isn't in the mix..." (No idea if you're from Texas, but I'm married to a Texan and... well, she stans Blue Bell so hard it's absurd. I'm a Vermonter, meanwhile, so it's all Ben and Jerry's, all day, for me.)
@@JeffKelly03i’m also a vermonter, love ben and jerry’s 🙏🏽
This is a crime
@@JeffKelly03you should try the H‑E‑B creamy creations 1905 vanilla. It’s honestly the best
Ideas for the next of this series:
Jar spaghetti sauces (or alfredo)
Frozen dinners
Cheeses
American beers
This series has such a great, casual feel to it. I didn't even notice he was facing screen right until he mentioned it. We all are just hanging out in the room and it's incredible.
"Imagine a flower: A climbing orchid, to be exact; the one of some twenty thousand varieties that produces something edible. Now imagine that its blooms must be pollinated either by hand or a small variety of Mexican bee, and that each bloom only opens for one day a year. Now imagine the fruit of this orchid, a pod, being picked and cured, sitting in the sun all day, sweating under blankets all night for months until, shrunken and shriveled, it develops a heady, exotic perfume and flavor. Now imagine that this fruit's name is synonymous with dull, boring, and ordinary. How vanilla got this bad rap I for one will never know."
-Alton Brown
I don’t know what it says about you that you had this quote come to mind and actually added it, props.
I also don’t know what it says about me that I was able to read it in Alton Brown’s voice and cadence. 😂
Because you can replicate 90% of the flavor with one chemical you can make pretty easily from petrolium.
👏👏👏
@@putinslittlehacker4793but that 10% makes a difference! They are not the same
Sounds like something Tucker Carlson would say with all the imaginary hypothetical questions.
It's not boring. It's pure. Pure sweet creaminess.
Vanilla is goated. Babish is way off
No
@@valuepak🤡
Vanilla is literally the flavor you add to make other flavors taste better. How can that be boring?
💀💀💀Bruh that's sus
“Does that bother you? The viewer” I felt him peering at me and yes, it did bother me. 😂
Tillamook is highly underrated
Shhhhhh! I want it for myself!!
Specifically the old fashioned vanilla. It's my fav for sure.
Don’t tell the rest of the country, they’ll all want it.
Southerners don't realize Blue Bell is not easily accessible up north
Hence why I'm glad they're slowly expanding up towards the north. They recently expanded into St Louis
It's also very mid-tier.
@@CollinOffTheCuff heresy
@@reignrevival2689 there's a reason it's not nation wide
yeah Blue Bell is a 10/10
does this mean we do chocolate now? it’s only right.
also testing different peanut butters could be cool
As someone who absolutely loves peanut butter I agree with that suggestion
. . . Peanut butter ice cream?
@@daemonvt8 Different brands of peanut butter
Peanut butter!!
@@daemonvt8 real peanut butters. but as icecream/milkshake flavor it is really great
The crazy thing it that I once had Vanilla ice cream in a tropical country, where they had extemely fresh Vanilla.
It was amazing and I've never found anything similar in a western country
Vanilla is an exotic orchid pod that only grows in a few remote locations. How 'vanilla' became synonymous with boring, I will never comprehend.
It's boring in the sense that it's the one flavour that you will find literally everywhere before any other flavour is available. It's unadventurous. The origins are irrelevant in the face of that ubiquity.
At least credit Alton Brown for the quote lol
People that's just trying to be edgy.
I love that half the comments are like "I LOVE vanilla" (I agree), and the other half are "no Blue Bell??"
And despite all those Breyer’s vanilla types, they still managed to miss one! Breyer’s “Extra Creamy Vanilla”
Technically not an ice cream! it's a frozen dairy dessert
I'll take a wild guess and call it...
...4.
It’s crazy to think that bryers, talenti, and Ben and Jerry’s are all made in the same factory but have wildly different textures, flavors and pricing!
When I was growing up in Santa Barbara in the 70s, McConnell’s was in the same block as my church, so I’d always stop in for ice cream after choir practice. Even got a tour once in 6th grade. It’s wild to me that it’s this super high end ice cream now because it was just this local thing, and not expensive-maybe 10 cents more per scoop than Baskin Robins.
Vanilla ice cream is the superior basic ice cream flavor, fight me.
It's the worst flavour and it's even worse if it's American ice cream.
I respect your opinion but I love Vanilla Ice cream with sprinkles.
@@veritorossiSure, Jan. 😂😂😂😒
Vanilla is a flavor that oftens fills the gaps around other flavors.
If you can't at least appreciate a nice vanilla, you don't deserve to appreciate any of the other flavors its in.
@@veritorossithe American hate starting early on this one 🤣
As a man who likes vanilla ice cream, I prefer fries with no ketchup.
Boo this man
Depends on the fry for me. But I will stand with you.
I prefer anything that isn't ketchup 😅
Forget ketchup. Give me garlic aioli. And sweet potato fries.
Had me with the garlic aioli...Made me abandon ship with the sweet potato fries.
I have a spreadsheet for Vanilla Ice Cream on my Google Drive. It was the only flavor of ice-cream I could enjoy for about 2 years due to parosmia after Covid smell/flavor loss in April 2021. 90% of stuff is finally back to 'normal', including my love peanut butter, whom I've so dearly missed these last 3 years 😂 As for favorite grocery store vanilla ice-cream, Tillamook Old-fashioned Vanilla is my girlie! Insanely creamy texture and balanced real and artificial vanilla flavor.
I also got parosmia after Covid and vanilla ice cream was a go-to. One of the few things that still tasted normal. Peanut butter was awful, and took forever to return to normal!
Most depressing thing when I had covid was eating a flavorless PB&J.😢
Ben & Jerry's is absolutely "a candy bar with a little bit of ice cream in it", and that makes it amazing! Cherry Garcia is the absolute pinnacle of human achievement!!
Welp, when's the Chocolate Ice cream episode....
I agree. It's absolutely necessary.
I am so glad they mentioned that Edy's and Dreyers are the same brand I was losing my mind over how everything about the packaging was the same except for the name. Dreyers French Vanilla is my go-to vanilla ice cream always.
I don't like cheap vanilla ice cream, but I do love high quality vanilla ice cream. The difference is night and day.
As we’ve learned here “cheap” isn’t always the main factor
I did a vanilla ice cream taste test at a family party back in middle school. The ranking, if I remember correctly, was Tillamook, Safeway, Dryer's (Edy's), Breyer's.
As an Oregonian, Tillamook and Umpqua are two of my favorites. Sad to see Tillamook ranked at 5, but to each their own.
And that they only had one of the three flavors of vanilla Tillamook has.
Umpqua has worse ingredients than Tillamook
@@sto-humanfriendly It really does, and I grew up on Umpqua.
Agreed!
@@jenrosejenrose7417 I grew up on it too, but I guess I just got more nostalgia for it.
When you said cardboard i immediately thought “must be oatly” because i also think the same and am glad im not alone LOL
Of the nondairy ice creams, Oatly repeatedly disappoints.
NadaMoo is my current fave because they make rocky road.
The avocado brand is super creamy but not always very flavorful (I think this is a natural outcome of the avocado, which kinda mutes everything else).
I thought that too. Was fun trying to guess based on his reaction comments. I knew cardboard = oats!
I never choose vanilla either. Skeptical (and curious) about hagen dazs lowish ratings tho!
Kirkland Signature is the absolute best! Costco FTW!
I don't even know why we are having this conversation. Tillamook. Hands down. Then again, I've been to the Tillamook creamery in Oregon and love it! They have both a strawberry and dark cherry to just die for.
Tillamook huckleberry. Awe yeah
100% no competition. Im not usually one to simp for a food brand or be elitist but Tillamook is just so far and above the rest at a similar price point
Vanilla is literally something that cannot exist without human intervention. It is the seed pod of an incredibly temperamental orchid plant, and every single flower must be pollinated BY HAND. When people think of something sweet in almost any culture, it is high up there on the list of flavors we think of.
I could see vanilla just not being a flavor you love, but calling it “boring” is based af at this point. Vanilla deserves better tbh
Calling vanilla boring isn’t based. It’s the dumbest take anyone can have. Based means courageous and great, not brain dead.
I think they meant to say biased
That's because we made vanilla's natural pollinators extinct.
That's the opposite of what based means...
Vanilla can and does exist in nature. It is endangered, but it does exist. It just can't be COMMERCIALIZED without human intervention. It can live in its natural habitat just fine without humans and has for millions of years
i love how alvin just took over cooking fun stuff while babish just went unhinged, these have a botched by vibe that i definitively think Andrew shine in (not to say i don't enjoy the normal videos too, im just really happy to see more of this along with it)
Vanilla is among the most exotic and complex spices in the world. The fact that it has come to be equated with 'boring' and 'mediocre' boggles the mind. Also the presence of flecks of vanilla is usually not a sign of actual quality and it almost always is just used vanilla pods that have been ground up rather than actual vanilla seeds from inside the pod.
What I love most about vanilla ice cream is, that you can combine it with everything else, that's its real strengh.
I honestly don't get this weird Vanilla hate. People talk as if Vanilla is the absence of flavor. Try eating ice'd cream without any vanilla or sugar before you think that.
People say it because vanilla is in everything else. Chocolate is chocolate plus vanilla. Cookies and cream is cookies plus vanilla. Brownies have vanilla. Vanilla is base. I wouldn't want to eat just salt, even though it's fundamental too.
@@brugbo613 That doesn't explain treating like it's a lack of flavor, just that it's the first flavor.
Nobody talks as if vanilla is the absence of flavor. Not one person. Not even Andrew (Babish). He just doesn't like vanilla ice cream, and there's nothing weird about not liking the flavor of something.
@@notahotshot I've heard LOTS of people talk about Vanilla that way. "Why would you take vanilla? Just drink milk at that point!" "I hate vanilla! It doesn't taste like anything!"
A purely dairy ice cream like mackies in the UK is incredible if you love cream and sugar alone which I do. I make my own crude ones usually though using double cream and condensed milk combined and lifted during its cooking periof
"This might get me flamed"
Dude. Vanilla has literally become a metaphorical synonym for safe/boring,
it's literally the zeitgeistiest thing imaginable to find Vanilla to be plain.
Literally the hottest take of the year. I was like oh boy, do we have a risk taker here 🙄 when he said that. Anyway, going to watch the rest of the vid on ice cream brands that don't exist in my country
I like plain french fries without ketchup!
@@tomhorsley6566 same, just salt, oil, and potato, and nothing else to hide behind.
It's not surprising to consider Vanilla plain.
It *is* a little surprising to not like it, though.
@@tomhorsley6566 depends on the fries. if they're dryish or thin you need something to balance out imo, I actually enjoy em with tartar sauce
I’d love to see an actual blind ranking where you don’t reveal as you go (that causes bias knowing what you’ve been tasting and what’s left)
I only see one Tillamook. Tillamook has 3 types of vanilla alone.
I wonder if they might only sell just the one vanilla flavor in NY? I live in Oregon where we naturally get all the varieties, but when I visit family on the east coast, I notice that there's usually a smaller selection of Tillamook flavors in stores
I love the name rebrand to ‘ranked with babish’. The thoroughness of these videos is always amazing
Maybe taken from Ollie from JOLLY channel
@@southeastasiandude did ollie suggest this name? OHHH i think I get the joke lol,, he was being silly with the 'with babish' thing lol that was hilarious
It's funny though; I'd generally call eating 24 scoops of ice cream in a day binging.
As a Pennsylvanian it gave me warm feelings that Edy's/Dreyers stood out, thats my goto. Not surprised by Turkey Hill. We need this caloric gauntlet one more time for the chocolate guys, cmon babby
I had no idea that Dreyers was called something else on the east coast. I thought I was going crazy for a second when I saw the different name.
Only thing that surprised me about the turkey hill was that it was rock hard and weird texture. For any of their faults, that's not usually one of them.
@@_ac39 True and I'm not opposed to their fvanilla. Their standard vanilla does nothing for me. But if vanilla is the move and I can't get edys fvanilla, whatevers on sale is the play lol
Been loving your ranked episodes babish! I think it would be cool to see buffalo sauces ranked!
Babish understands the content I want. I always have the thought of wanting to try every flavor/type of whatever, it gets me so curious because I wanna know the differences in brands
Not surprised at all when the “criminally smooth” ice cream turned out to B&J.
I haven’t ever tried the plain vanilla but the texture immediately reminded me of my all time favourite cherry garcia and being i don’t like chocolate ice cream, i only buy the flavours that use their vanilla as the base.
cherry garcia gaaaaang
Edy's association with Nestle being the deciding factor for an automatic fail is correct xD
100%
Nestle owns (or owned) HD, too, and the quality dropped precipitously. Not to mention we don't give nestle money in this house if we have a choice.
It's also just a nasty "frozen dairy dessert" brand... Can't even call their product ice cream
big fan of this series!!! just binged all 7 of them and I can't wait for the next ranking to come out :))
As an Oregonian, Tillamook is the best hands down, don't need to watch the video. Also it is pronounced Tilla-muk not moo-k
Is the high school football team still named the Cheesemakers?
Vanilla is a great and amazing flavor.
Most Vanilla ice cream has not enough vanilla in it.
Tilamook has two or three versions of Vanilla. French Vanilla, Old fashioned Vanilla, etc.
Great episode, thank you for your sacrifice! My spouse and I have a feud over which vanilla ice cream is better but I guess they're both southern brands: Blue Bell and Mayfield. Wish they could've made the list!
I don’t get vanilla ice cream but I kind of see where he’s coming from with the Haagen-Dazs. Haagen-Dazs doesn’t use any stabilizers or artificial ingredients so the real beauty is in the continued eating. As it softens it gets sweeter and creamier and then will refreeze without turning into daggers. Ice cream is unfortunately hard to judge with a single sampling. Alright, I’m done simping for Haagen-Dazs.
As soon as you said the vanilla was muted, I knew it was Haagen Das. Tillamook reins supreme.
Haagan Das is leaps and bounds better than Tillamook. Everyone seems to love it, too light and airy for me and not enough vanilla flavor for me.
Love the ranked series so much! Random ideas for new eps: supermarket cookie aisle (including Trader Joe’s), frozen french fries/potato products, pasta brands, best rotisserie chicken!
Testing every jarred / canned spaghetti sauce would be cool! :D
This plus the box brownie episode.... I will become unstoppable
The box brownie episode changed my kid's life, lol! He now bakes brownies on the regular and takes them to school for people there.
I totally agree with you on Halo Top; I bought it once, and never again. Didn’t even finish it.
cant wait for the water ranking video
We need to see a video for ranking packaged beef jerky!! 🤠
Vanilla is the buttered noodles of ice cream
so the most excellent that you will return to again and again?
You say that likes it’s a bad thing.💀 Butter noodles are fire. They’re literally a butter delivery system. Butter makes everything better.
Me, lover of vanilla ice cream, french fries with no ketchup, and kisses without mustaches: 👁👄👁
Same but I do like kisses with the ol' upside down moustache down below
my preference for vanilla flavor is French Vanilla.
Tillamook is my go-to brand, but I typically get more 'fun' flavors.
people that hate on vanilla dont actually like ice cream, they like candy with ice cream involved. keep that rocky road chunky monkey bacon butter pecan cookie dough stuff, i like ice cream. ok, with chocolate chips. but light on the chips.
rating tilamook (til-uh-muck btw) 5?!?!?!? i am appalled.
Unreal. I blame the fatigue
Controversial companies like Nestlé is beneath Babish... Respect.
Controversial? Try evil.
Plus their ice cream sucks anyways, it’s filled with shortening and artificial flavors
Hate to be the party pooper but Haagen-Dazs is Nestle
@@patton333Häagen-Dazs also isn't all that great with a few exceptions lol.
My man Babish talks about my favorite ice cream in the world. Ben and Jerry's Caramel Sutra Core. With the caramel in the middle.
My mom was dating this guy who was oddly boring. They went to Baskin Robins one day, and out of ALL the flavors, he asked for just vanilla. And nearly went catatonic when they asked if he wanted normal or French vanilla.
My grandma hates French vanilla, not because of the taste, but because of the vanilla specks. She says they look like fly specks! Lol!😂😂😂
Where’s my Tillamook Gang?
Tillamook for life!!!!
We out here
Consider having an on-demand palate cleanser for this video format
Ranking pancake mix!
Simple, King Arthur.
Vanilla's my favorite flavor! Thank you for tasting them and sacrificing your calories for them!
Welp this reminded me of when I had my wisdom teeth removed, and when I had to eat 4 pints of vanilla ice cream for two days. The big thing about this, is that it was absolutely delicious vanilla ice cream and since then I never found that flavor again. Be it soft served or not. France, let me find that one again please :(
I feel the sweetness overload just by watching this
During the vanilla ice cream tasting....
As each bowl is handed to him....
"And Another vanilla ice cream...."😅😅
Tillamook "Old Fashioned Vanilla" >>>>>>>>>
TILLAMOOOOOOOOK ugh love them
Shhhhh I don't want the price to go up or stock to go down
Is Tillamook even sold outside of the PNW? I have no clue but since they didn't have it I'm guessing distribution is somewhat limited.
@@yourmomlol3083yes!!! I’m from California and loved it. I am living in Boston (only for a few more months 🎉), and they do have it here!!
@@yourmomlol3083 It's sold in Texas in the Gulf Coast so the reach has to be pretty wide.
This is the video and information I always dreamed I could know as a vanilla ice cream fan
I’d love a video of you testing peanut butters!
Next time you should get kendall to do a homemade version of whatever you‘re testing. To see how much of a difference there is;)
Mayfield Signature Vanilla is hands down the best store bought ice cream, and one of the best ice creams ever.
Can't believe Talenti vanilla scored so low (never tried it), but their Bourbon Fudge Brownie is fantastic.
If you're still looking for ideas for more rankings, a classic salted potato chip list would be great!
Love these videos. Thank you for making them.
5:00 That school ice cream analogy hits super close to home. I know *exactly* how that tastes, I can practically taste it myself just hearing about it.
i absolutely love this series, please keep it up
"I don't like Vanilla"
And just like that, Babish was dead to me.
Got a babish ad while watching babish how neat now I know how to make the perfect French omelette
I'm once again living vicariously through Andrew! I'm allergic to milk, have been all my life, so I've never gotten used to eating cold stuff. I do like vanilla rice milk or vanilla oat milk though!
Gonna re-suggest a comparison I suggested a few weeks ago
Sparkling Water. To keep it fair I’d keep it to basic just a few basic flavors (lemon/lime/grapefruit), but I’d like to see how brands like Waterloo/Spindrift/Kirkland…etc stand up to each other. And to see how unsweetened stacks up to sweetened.
Trader Joe's vs Whole Foods house brands, vs Vintage selzer
Ever since I made my own ice cream I've not been able to go back to store bought ice cream except for Graeter's in Cincinnati.
Greeters is the best.
Normally I feel like I agree with Babish on a lot of things, but Talenti getting a 3 is brutal - it's my goto vanilla ☠️
So to anyone asking about bluebell ice cream. Bluebell doesnt ship outside of a couple state radius because they feel like they risk temp changes thus changing the quality and flavor of their product.
I'd like to see you do instant ramen comparisons!
Dang kinda sad Tilamook scored so low. They are my favorite brand out of what is available to me. but to be fair I dont ever get their vanilla even tho I do enjoy vanilla quite alot.
As a New Yorker myself I'm a little disappointed you didn't get some Perry's to try. That's my go-to if I'm wanting Vanilla. I'll have to give Edy's a try though. Never had it before.
Perry’s vanilla is delicious!!
I want a divorce??? Homie you already got two
Is this lore?
Maybe a ranking of all cookie dough icecream would be cool
No
For anyone asking about why Blue Bell isn’t on the list, it’s really difficult to find in NYC (where I’m 99% sure they film).
I'm glad somebody in the comments section used common sense.
So they couldn’t try harder to find it?
@@generalnando5722 I checked the website and it was only sold in a handful of CVS pharmacies. Even then, some people say they sell out quickly.
UPDATE: Found roughly 4-5 locations in NY, 4 in Manhattan... only one in Brooklyn (place where BWB is recorded per internet results).
Excuses
Easy hack….Blue Bell supplies ice cream to Outback Steakhouse…that’s how you get it in NY and New England
I highly recommend tracking down Golden Vanilla ice cream! It's made with buttermilk, so it's extra rich, sweet, and creamy. The only brand I know for it is Purple Cow, a Meijer house brand. Easily my favorite flavor of ice cream.
Vanilla ice cream is amazing if you buy the right kind (or make your own) & pair it with other delicious decadent delights
I feel much the same about vanilla icecream as I do cheese pizza. What is a company worth if they can't do the basic, the essential, well? Umpqua french vanilla is my favorite, but its a bit of a local specialty. Very dense creamy texture and great flavor.
What's your local? Montana here, and Umpqua is also a fav here. I am glad they switched over to sealed containers over just fit-top lids though.
