Breyers Smooth & Dreamy Vanilla Fudge Brownie Sandwiches Product Review

Kassidy Emmerson
I don't eat a lot of plain ice cream. I prefer ice cream treats instead. Being that Breyers is known for their creamy, flavorful ice cream, and I love ice cream sandwiches, I bought a box of
Breyers Smooth & Dreamy Vanilla Fudge Brownie Sandwiches. I paid more than I wanted to. But I was sure it would be well worth the cost when my family and I enjoyed the sandwiches later. Here is my product review:

Product Description

A sandwich contains 160 calories, 35 calories from fat, 4 grams total fat, 2 grams saturated fat, 0 grams trans fat, less than 5 milligrams cholesterol, 150 milligrams sodium, 30 grams total carbohydrates, 2 grams dietary fiber, 16 grams sugars and 3 grams protein.

Taste Test and Conclusion
Unfortunately, I won't buy Breyers Smooth & Dreamy Vanilla Fudge Brownie Sandwiches again.
The ice cream part was delicious. The brownie part tasted funny. They tasted cheap. If you ever bought a package of really inexpensive cookies and, when you bit into one, you noticed an odd flavor, then you know what I mean.

I wanted other opinions, so I didn't mention my dislike for the Breyers Smooth & Dreamy Vanilla Fudge Brownie Sandwiches to my family. After three more people tried them and gave them a thumbs down, I knew it wasn't just my taste buds. I'm disappointed that I trusted the Breyers name but this product was just a waste of money.

    Darn, I love Breyers and brownies, so when I read your title I was hoping you'd give these five stars. Thanks for saving me the dough... and calories!

    I'm sorry to hear of your disappointment with this product, Kassidy. But thanks for the warning though. I normally like Breyers products, but I'll try to remember to steer clear of this product.

    Sorry, I haven't received any of your publication notices. I just caught this piece while checking through those I read the old fashioned way. Good review, BTW.
