- In the east this ice cream brand goes by Edy's, whereas in the west it goes by Dreyer's. That's kind of strange, so this video explains why that's the case while providing the full story behind it.

Please do “EA” why they’re hated next.
Yasss
Are used to love EA Back in the day but now they’re garbage.
Or PETA. That's a spicy topic too.
EA: Def Jam icon was a flop so that means everyone hates the Def Jam series.
The fans: just make Def Jam fight for New York Remixed (Remastered)
EA: what's that you want 2 FIFA games in one year ok then.
Or Nestle
When Dreyer's went east, they changed their name to Edy's so as not to be confused with Breyers. When Breyers went west, they didn't change their name or care about the confusion? SMH
Should've called they're western product Ebys
right? Dreyer's and Breyers both exist here in SoCal
@@tarastar7006 yea that dosen't make sense to me
I was gonna say this. When I was a kid in so cal I always got confused by the two
ikr! just remember B is bad because breyers ice cream in the west tastes like whipped topping and dreyers at least tastes close to ben and jerrys or some other premium ice cream.
being used to seeing Dreyer's here in cali, Edy's looks like a fan edit lmao
Lol, NY here...the opposite is true for me.
Dang, here from NYC, I mock them both because im a Breyers fan
From an edys area, and it still looks fake
i know, i saw the name Edy's elsewhere and for some reason thought it was photo shopped on...
your butter sticks look like a fan edit of butter
I lived in a trailer park by a Dollar General that sold Bryers, Dreyers, and Edy's
That's so confusing
I live by a store called Meyer's that sells dryers,bryers and hair dryers!
@@liljay216 omfg lol
@@liljay216 Meijer gang!
You must be in the borderlands
Virginia here. Never had heard of Dreyer's until now. We definitely have Edy's though.
Virginia also. I have never seen Dreyers. I have seen Edy's in stores but have never ate it. I should try it one of these days. It's good to know where "Rocky Road" came from.
Same for Kentucky.
I live in California (Dreyer's) and have always known Edy's was the east of the Rockie's name for the same ice cream.
Same thing except the other way around I never heard of Edy’s until now
Virginia also, i have heard of both.
As an east coaster I legit looked up Dreyer's to make sure this wasn't an April fools joke lmao
As a west coasters I legit looked up Edy's to make sure this wasn't a joke LMAO 🤣🤣🤣
Ken The G same here 🤣 Texas here
Funny, cause here in California we both have Dreyer's and Breyers.
I'm a Midwesterner and remember how my mind was blown when I learned there was an ice cream brand out west whose name (and cofounder's name) was only one letter away from Breyers, and that it sold by the same company as Edy's.
@@lelouch3666 I can confirm this as a Californian
In Houston Texas we have Dreyer's, Edy's just looks odd to me.
In florida/NY/PA (all places I lived, we had edys and til today didn’t know there was a dreyers and it to me sound like a discount breyers lol
Your Dad same
Same
I see both in Louisiana as well
Do they sell for the same price to?
I, a Californian went to New York and saw Dreyers was "Edy’s" and I thought I was dreaming and going crazy, and went to Carl’s. Jr as Hardee’s and I fainted for a minute.
I grew up in California and never heard of Edy’s until 2015 when on a trip to Disneyworld they served an ice cream brand called Edy’s with the same logo as Dreyer’s. I was so lost and confused that it was on my mind the entire trip.
Life wanted to throw you a curveball.

I'm surprised we're not all enjoying Cronk's Ice Cream now.
gotta get a taste of Cronk.
I love how that sounds.
Yuk.
the three william's of ice cream
In Southern California we have Dreyer’s and Breyers. Which is ironic because that’s the whole reason Dreyer’s has to change their name on the east coast.
St. Louis. Edy's. Was confused when Family Guy mentioned Dreyer's being the ice cream you look at before buying Hagan Das. I thought they were talking about Breyers.
That's funny because family guy takes place in a fictional Rhode Island city, you'd think they'd only know Edy's lol 😂
Heavenhellhaleema that’s true
That’s crazy cuz I live in NJ and we only have Edys and Breyers I literally thought this was a joke
@@Heavenhellhaleema It's because Family Guy is done in California.
Vinasear You should check out Fountains on Locust, they have the best hand-made ice cream, and even have fancy alcoholic ice cream desserts if you're old enough.
As an Iowan who moved to Oregon and was shocked to find that Edy’s was now Dreyer’s, Hardee’s was now Carl’s Jr., Hellman’s was now Best Foods, etc., this video was interesting.
I knew hellman's and best foods were the same ! I was trippen
I'm an Iowan too. I am used to Edy's here.
I had the opposite experience. Gave me this odd feeling of having stepped into an alternate reality
I’m from Indiana, I didn’t know Dreyer’s existed before I decided to go to Edy’s website, and lo and behold It had 2 names!
Marioaddict3 hello fellow Hoosier!!
Hello!
Same
I'm an Ice cream loving Hoosier and I don't buy this brand. I used to buy Breyers and I just discovered purple cow which I believe is Meijers store brand. It's cheap. And delicious
This as always been my favorite ice cream seeing Dreyers is just weird
Being from California, I had no clue Edy's existed until now.
And so yes, we have both Dreyer's and Breyers.
Every once in a while a grocery store ad will have a picture of Edy's instead of Dreyer's, so that's how I knew it was a thing.
Being from Oregon I agree
But my pop’s is from Brooklyn and I go there often how tf did I not notice
@@ronaldtitty3654 You probably glanced over the packaging, seen the letters E & 's and thought "oh that's Dreyer's" 😄
From MD, never heard of Dreyers before. Weird!
“May have invented Rocky Road ice cream-“
BLESS THIS MAN
What?! No! Worst flavor ever
My favorite flavor of ice cream. However, I prefer the Thrifty brand one.
My favorite flavor as well. The Dreyer's brand is good, but so is Turkey Hill and Blue Bunny.
@@w4ffel I've never heard of Turkey Hill but Blue Bunny is sold here. I'll have to give it a try.
czcams.com/video/beTsDOBRs8I/video.html 😉
"walker's" and "lay's" the crisp companies.
Crisps? Crisps? U gotta be in the UK. But, yes-that would be interesting. Dunno why its lays here and Walker's there?
B B it’s only Walker’s in the UK, so of course most people that even know it exists will call it crisps.
We call it chips in North America
You mean "potato chips"? You British are so cute sometimes.
@Eian Weaver: they sell potato crisps in the US too. Have you seen a can of Pringles? It says potato crisps NOT potato chips on a can of Pringles.
Pokémon: Dreyer’s

?
???
Lol
🤔
it’s a joke about version names
I see them both in NYC. I always thought Dreyer's was a knock off or lite Edy's
Anonymous K that’s what I thought when I saw Best Food’s Mayonnaise. That it was a knockoff of Helmann’s
They sell both Dreyers and Edy's in NYC? That's even stranger.
But like you didnt think of it the other way?
@@yooperlooper2271 Dreyers was always the 1 we avoided. I grew up on Edys
@@kennystiefel7343 of i were you I'd probably look back at my childhood and laugh finding out that the brand we avoided was actually the exact same thing as the one we been eating. Cause of the irony. But knowing me, I laugh at everything
New York. Never knew Dreyer's was a thing. Also never knew that Best Foods was a thing.
Upstate NY. Hellmann's always in my memory had a thing on the back that said "Known as 'Best Foods' west of the Rockies".
If you watch old episodes of Roseanne, you'll see Best Foods mayonnaise. They don't have the same taste.
@7:29 “started using Edy’s in the western states” he meant Eastern
FYI: "GOOD HUMOR" brand ice cream is known as "WALL'S" in Thailand 🇹🇭 ! Same logo, different names 🤔 !
I would like to see him do a video on that. The story behind that sounds like it could be interesting.
Im seeing "Wall's" in Indo, Singapore and Malaysia, while in PH, its called "Selecta"
@@milkyii In Australia, it's called "Streets"
Sounds like a cough drop lmao
it's "Algida" in europe
I thought this was an Aprils fools joke, I have never heard of Dreyer's in my life and thought the name was supposed to be a parody of Breyers . I guess that shows how big the divide is lol.
Parum Nulla Pulsus i heard of dryers but not edys
I had the same reaction as you, but with the names reversed. I had never heard of Edy's before.
We have Dreyer's out here and I found out about Edy's on the Internet a few years ago.
Same! Never had heard of Dreyer's
gatorraid same
I honestly thought this was an April Fools because I've never heard of Edy's.
I hadn't thought of that but I had never heard of Dreyers! Hello Western neighbor!
This is so interesting, here in Oregon we have Dryer’s and Breyers and I’ve always been confused by 2 ice cream brands with similar names.
Your videos are always good man keep up with the good work!
I've literally never heard of Edy's until this video. Dreyer's here in California
Erick Munoz same but NY and edy’s
Yep, same here....
I LOVE Rocky Road
I've seen edy's in stores in California, right next to dreyers!
Yeah
I literally had no idea "Dreyer's" existed.
Same thing, but for Edy's.
Milokiss82 lol never knew edys existed until now
Me either
Haha I was like "wtf is Edy's?"
I’m in Alaska, wtf are the both of these.
I grew up near Seattle, so it was Dryers for me. It was the brand we always bought! But now I have a job that requires lots of travel so I see Edys all the time. It’s so fascinating to me how they’re brands specific to regions.
If you move left 4 letters, 4 times, starting on the second “E” in “Dreyers”, you can spell “Edy’s”
Edy's looks like a bad photoshop, and I had to check to make sure this wasn't an april fools day joke
As an easterner, I could say the same about Dreyer's
I felt the same exact way with dreyers
Yeah, "Edy's" really doesn't fill the name banner well...
Tea Pub Well seeing as Edy’s logo was made after Dreyer’s, it could be argued that it *is* just a bad photoshop
@@kiroropupper3914 yeah, it looks empty and somewhat off center
I'm on the east coast, and I first heard about Dreyer's on a Food Network show, Unwrapped perhaps. But instead of confusing them with Edy's, I confused them with Breyer's.
The tubs don't even look the same and the name's are in entirely different fonts. wtf
lain iwakura they are almost the same name lol are you stupid
This is a fantastic series! Keep it up this is great content
Thanks, will do!
I've witnessed overlap throughout various places here in the Tri-State Area while growing-up. 10 years ago, in my late mid-teens, I really started taking notice of ShopRites and Stop & Shops that sold both of them throughout various towns & cities in the CT parts of Greater New York, and instantly remembered an instance or two of seeing them in the A&P while growing up in Downstate N.Y. I've even seen them in the same side-case=between-isles before, but usually Dryer's is located separate, in a smaller (between-aisle case).
These are the questions that we need answers to now. These are the matters that need to be addressed.
In Texas we have both Breyer’s and Dreyers, weird
Montz confusion it is
Same here but in California. I just look at both of them and wondered why they had similar names. And then I just shrugged it off.
@@lelouch3666 I usually encounter them in dollar stores here in California and I always assumed it was a off brand. But now I learned it's not
Was about to comment the same, we have Breyers and Dreyers in Dallas (and we are definitely east of the Rockies).
In mass we have all 3
Atlanta, GA here so very familiar with Edy's, never saw Dreyer's before. Very cool and informative! Thank you!
In Alabama we have Edy's and yes I learned about Dreyer's a few years ago when it was mentioned on a tv show. On a side note when I first heard of Dreyer's I thought it was connected to Breyers ice cream. On another side note, I like Edy's and Breyers but, Blue Bell is better than both in my opinion. However, until this video I had no idea about Hellmann's sister brand Best Foods😱
When I moved to Las Vegas from the Atlanta area, I searched like 5 grocery stores looking for Hellman's before I realized it was called Best Foods here. I mean, the slogan "Bring out the best" should have been a clue (not to mention the similar labels) but no...I felt so dumb.
Me: really need to go work on my truck
CZcams: New company man
Me: welp, there goes that
Please do the Champion clothing brand! I’m so curious how they were able to transform their company/marketing around. Since the way people viewed them 20 years ago is so different from how people view them now
He did a video on them about a year ago!
czcams.com/video/qkvcfgFI2_Y/video.html
Jeana thanks!
I still view them the same. If you view them differently it’s probably because of product placement marketing.
Fascinating video! 👍 Thank you for the information! 😌
You should do "Why three names?", Oroweat vs. Arnold vs. Brownberry. What a story!
Grew up in Edy's territory for 28 years, moved to Colorado in 2018 and saw "Dreyer's". I'd heard of Breyer's, but seeing Dreyer's with the Edy's branding was a weird sight.
Prior to my current job, I was the customer service trainer for Nestle confections, baking, beverage and ice cream brand ambassadors (the folks who answer your phone calls and respond to your letters, emails and social media posts when you contact the company). This video is very well done.
A few more fun facts for you: not only was the Dreyer's brand responsible for the creation of Rocky Road (always with chopped marshmallows - marshmallow creme is not real Rocky Road), but they also invented Cookies & Cream. It was first created by the Dreyer's official taste tester, John Harrison, whose taste buds were insured by the company for a million dollars.
Also, when Nestle took full ownership of Dreyer's, they also acquired Edy's/Dreyer's Fruit Bars (now Outshine), Skinny Cow and the licence to produce and distribute Haagen Dazs in the United States and Canada for the rest of this century. Speaking of which, if you think William Dreyer has an interesting back story, you've got to do a video on Reuben and Rose Mattus. Reuben is the Steve Jobs of ice cream.
Hey keep up the good work you make amazing content and I really enjoy watching it
Im from Puerto Rico.I had never heard of Dreyer’s.They sell Edy’s here.
Edy’s vs Dreyer’s
Hellmans vs Best Foods
Carl’s Jr. vs Hardee’s.
Who is best 🧐😎
Wonder woman vs captain marvel SJW.
Who wins.
@@theenzoferrari458 How about your mom?
US neither their the same
yep
Um you don’t even understand what you’re asking. They’re the same.
I always thought because "Dreyers" and "Breyers" were so similar sounding they'd changed it to "Edys."
nomine * you weren’t far off
Well there still is breyers in the west
I thought Bryers was dryers and mendalla effect
Bruh in Texas you can get both at the same store sometimes
@@rainbowsixwaco332 I live in Texas and I've never seen it called Edy's
Very good analysis of the ice cream wars and history of the two brands. Living in Southeast I never see Dreyers. All new to me. Thank you.
A good double name alternate reality is “Burger King” and “Hungry Jacks”. Have fun there!
It's because there was already a copyright in Australia under Burger King
It would be a short video though. The reason is pretty simple. Better would be a whole video about name differences in Australia (and to some extent New Zealand) from the rest of the world. There's a different Woolworth's in Australia, not that they have any US competition for the name anymore. New Zealand has a different Bed, Bath and Beyond. There are others too, besides Burger King, I'm just forgetting them.
Austalia
Everyone in the comments is like
“I’ve never heard of Dreyer’s/Edy’s”
Meanwhile I’ve never heard of any of them
That's because you don't live in America... -_-
I have never heard of ether one probably because I used to live in the south (Florida) and when I moved up west I still never heard of any of them until today.
Cooe no it’s because I don’t look at ice cream
@@Cooe. i live in Ohio and i've never seen them on the shelf. Never seen Ben & Jerry's or Baskin Robbins either
Grew up on the west coast always dreyers. Then I moved to the east coast and it edys
Here's a few other ones you should do for your "Why Two Different Names?" series next:
Burger King/Hungry Jack's
TJ Maxx/TK Maxx
If you live in the Phillipines.
Royal/Fanta
@@conradojavier7547 hmm. never knew fanta had a different name.
Wouldn't you rather have an HJ over a BK?
When we first saw TKMaxx we thought someone made a typo when making the sign and didn’t want to pay to get a new one.
Hellmann's and Best Foods?
I live in the north midwest and we have both edys and bryers in our stores.
Thank you for this interesting episode.
Just wanted to say I really enjoyed this video!
I would love to see you cover the 34 different Big Boy Franchises one day
It’s Edy’s in TN. It’s pronounced like “Eddy’s.”
Pronouncing it like that must be a Southern thing. Rhett and Link did a video parroting that same pronunciation when if you see the old ads on CZcams it's pronounced EE-dy's
We say Eddys in Wisconsin.
@@ieatemos Interesting
I believe Tenn. has a low literacy rate.
@@nelsonricardo3729 Part of learning a language is actually hearing the words of that language. I live in Alabama and we have Edy's and I too have always pronounced it, to myself, as Eddy's. Or both, unsure which is accurate. I've never seen a commercial for it.
But it doesn't matter as I just make my own ice cream now, lol.
I live in San Jose. The Nestle factory is in Oakland. Arrowhead Spring water is in one location there along with Dreyer's/DiGiorno pizza at another location. Haagen-Dazs, which I am eating right now, is also made in the same Dreyers factory. looks like they have an actual storefront/ice cream parlor there.
It’s called Edy’s here in Minnesota. I don’t remember hearing of Dreyer’s, but I think I remember seeing Breyers when I’ve been out east.
*They had a baby, Breyer’s which ended up taking over.*
Brb let me grab my ice cream pint before I start this video
Finally I've watched all of your videos.
One night I saw both an Edy's and a Dreyer's commercial within the same hour on the same channel and the commercial was exactly the same except for the name! I went "WTF?!"
This is the first I've heard or seen anyone else mention it! Thanks!
In Texas we have Dreyer's and Breyer and I never confused them once until now.
i miss Braums
@@russiaprivjet braums is awesome! Because of Quarantine, you can now order quarts from the market via drive thru.
I moved to Arizona from the Midwest and was so confused when I saw the Edy’s container with a different name on it.
Nice video. This confused the heck out of me when I moved from the Midwest to the W coast
I live in California and always saw Dreyer's in the store. About a year ago, a local chain that specializes in overstock had some Edy's brand ice cream. I was super confused, but later Googled it and learned the history.
In Hong Kong, they sell it under the name Dreyer's, and I assume that's the name they use in oversea. They use Edy's solely for avoiding confusing in the East Coast, so I think Dreyer's would be a more well known name in the world.
firerocket that is so strange to me because I’ve always seen dreyers and breyers in my stores, wasn’t confused and didn’t pay attention to the fact that their names are similar
@@cvb4117 It crossed my mind why the names were so Simi but then I just shrugged it off and looked for the type of flavor I wanted.
It's interesting, since it's Edy's here and I'm not sure I had ever seen or heard of Dreyer's until recently. It would make sense if they were trying to separate it from Dreyer's, since that's what I'm bound to confuse it with.
Actually, in Puerto Rico (in the Caribbean) it is Edy's, so I would believe that same split through the middle of North America goes through overseas as well...
IOW, Dreyer's in Asia and Oceania and Edy's in Europe. Wonder how they manage for a country like Brazil if Nestlé sells either brand there.
I believe Unilever doesn't sell Breyer's there, as they have other brands into their "Heart" (like Good Humor in US) brand umbrella all over South America...
That's pretty much it. The rebranding of Edy's on the west coast was basically a concession made to Breyer's, who only had an East Coast presence when the Dreyer's direct store delivery fleet started moving the product beyond the Rockies. Then, Breyer's moved their product to the West Coast and suddenly didn't think the brand name similarities would be confusing. Go figure.
Iowa is an Edy’s state. I remember seeing Dreyer’s in the past, probably on a TV show or something
Unsurprisingly, so is Minnesota
I thought Iowa was a Blue Bunny state, right?
MProoveIt Yep, Blue Bunny is made in Iowa but there are other brands sold here too! My personal favorite ice cream brand is Hudsonville, it’s from Michigan but they sell it here.
This was actually super interesting and really fun and informative. Thank you for this valuable content. As a Nevada Native, it’s always been Dreyer’s out here but when I go back East, or to the South, it’s Edy’s. I knew they were the same. My favorite is still Breyers. though. Talk about Ice cream wars!
I was confused for a minute watchin this but you brought it all together. Lol. Los Angeles, CA we have Dreyer’s. Never knew about Edy’s until watchin this.
Good watching during quarantine. Thanks for keeping the content coming! Also: While we primarily have Dreyer's around us you can find Edy's at certain stores. From what I've gathered it can sometimes be cheaper around here to order Edy's and have it shipped as opposed to ordering Dreyer's directly from the manufacturer.
Maybe try doing a video on a charity retail chain like goodwill or vinnies in Australia. Interesting and unique businesses and very little known about how they operated
So interesting! Thanks!
I live in ND near the MT border. Depending on the distribution centers, one of our Grocery stores carries Dreyer's and the other carries Edys. The same runs for Hellman's and Best Foods. One company gets its supply from Minneapolis and the other from Denver or Salt Lake.
So I've lived in Washington for nearly my whole life, where we have Dreyers, and when I was 8/9 my family briefly moved to North Carolina and I saw the ice cream I knew was now Edy's and I assumed that was a permanent global name change, but when I moved back to Washington it was Dreyers again and I was super confused.
I’m from central TX, and we have Dreyer’s there. I currently live in TN, where the ice cream is known as Edy’s.
This weed I bought two containers of Edy's that were on sale. I always wondered about this. Thank you.
Grew up in Buffalo N.Y., it was Edy’s. Now live on the west coast, and it’s Dreyers. I looked into this myself about 10 years ago, but still a great video.
Actually the divide is like a big S. When I lived in Wisconsin I knew Edy's, but now I live in Texas and I see Dreyer's
IDK y but "Dreyer Cream" doesn't sound that appetizing
Miniarts maybe it’s because I grew up with the brand but when I hear “dreyers” I immediately think of great rocky road
@@isabatedcases5738 Oh I'm an Edy's native all the way.
I mean it's garbage ice cream to begin with
Yeah
But Edy's "cream" sounds a lot like something else that sounds wayyy less appetizing.
Here in Oakland CA, I've seen Dreyer's, Breyers AND Edy's (mostly at places like Grocery Outlet that seem to sell overstock of other companies for cheap).
Yes, I knew they both existed and also that Dreyers transported Ben and Jerry's for a period of time. Edy's is sold in my hometown, but I've always had a special interest in Dreyers. Thanks for sharing an interesting business collaboration.
There are three cutthroat industries in the Bay Area: high tech, ice cream, and as of the last decade, boba.

@@mii7121 Its another name for those bubble tea places we've seen popping up everywhere (Happy Lemon, T4, Sharetea, etc.) that originated in Taiwan
@@geneticemo Its a sweet tea drink with tapioca or fruit chunks in the bottom. It originated in Taiwan.
@@judakimberly6551 ohhhhh...ok makes sense
I'm from Chicago and we have Edy's here. When I visited Texas and saw Dreyer's for the first time I stayed away from it because it just didn't feel right... CLEARLY THAT'S EDY'S! 😂
Growing up in CA, we had Dreyer's a lot. Good stuff. Their slow churned coffee ice cream is one of my favorites.
Thanks for the video! I'm in Los Angeles and our supermarket has both, Dreyer's and Edy's. They both say Dreyers Edys Ice Cream with ice cream cones for the apostrophes. Breyers is also on the shelf.
I live in Maryland and have a Dreyer's/Nestle Plant 5 Miles from me in Jessup, MD. And the Plant also produces Haagen Das. Don't hate on me on this next one and check it first, but they also Produce a Brand called Big Gay Ice Cream. It has a Picture of a Unicorn on it, sold only in New York I believe.
Yeah, I've seen big gay ice cream. Never tasted it, but the name and packaging are fun!
There is a German ball bearing company called FAG Bearings (Fischer's Automatische Gussstahlkugelfabrik).
There is alot of funny stuff in the ball bearing industry. My dad worked for a big ball bearing outfit. The "ball factory" was at his location. And he used to bring home boxes of "precision balls" to bring to presentations for his customers. There was also the term "roller balls" I saw frequently on products, lol.
WAIT IT WAS A BRAND AND NOT A STAND ALONE STOP. I just thougjt it was a stand alone stop near the 14.st union square station
Imagine getting a degree for ice cream making
Ben Neal doesn’t sound like a good return on investment

Never heard of Dreyers but here in Philly we have Edys & Breyers! Amazing information
Here in central FL we have both! I’ve seen Edys a little more but we have Dreyers as well 🤠 I never put two and two together as to why their packaging looked so similar lmao. Dreyer’s is always at cheaper stores like family dollar, while Edy’s can be found in CVS and Walmart!
When I see two brands with different names like this, I just assume they merged or one bought the other. What insanity produces two founders with the same first name and last names that differ by only one letter?
I probably only realized Dreyer's existed within the last month. It's Edy's here.
In WA, we have Dreyer's. I learned of the Edy's name when I saw a Dreyer's commercial that showed the Edy's name for a couple of frames at the beginning. Wondering why that happened, I googled "Edy's" and learned that there were two different names.
We also have Breyers in WA, too. Looked it up and apparently they started in the east and moved westward, and for some reason didn't have to change their name they way that Dreyer's. Breyers used to be known for using all natural ingredients before being bought by Unilever, who cut costs and turned it into crap that can't even be legally called "ice cream" anymore.
Here in Washington we call it Dreyers but I remember that their were these fruit bar ice cream bars that had the brand name Edy's? The fruitbars are now gone and looks like they are owned by outshine, and the ice cream remains as Breyers. I hope someone here also remembers these Fruit bars.
Another Silicon Valley person checking in. I've only ever seen Dreyer's in stores, but my parents both grew up in the northeast. So I knew about the existence of Edy's, but previously had no idea why they were differentiated like that.
Stalin approves, no gulag for you
You approve of a video on a channel about capitalism. How does this make you feel, Joseph
David Kagan it's ice cream. Who doesn't like ice cream
@@Stalin99 fair point
Wait, so Edy started in Montana and yet it's sold as Dryer's in Montana and Dryer started in NY and it's sold as Edy's there? That's not weird or confusing at all.
Edy's didn't start as ice cream in Montana, was into candy (like See's)...
I knew about this because I used to hang out at Edy’s in Berkeley and they only served Dreyer’s. I then visited the factory at Grand and that’s when I learned a little bit more. I miss that Edy’s.
I’m from Los Angeles, and other than a map from Knott’s Berry Farm, I didn’t know what Edy’s was, and when I saw it, I thought it was a no-namer stealing the Dreyer’s logo
