Viennetta Mint Ice Cream 650 ml

Product Information

As I write today, now in my 40s and living the London life of a Guardian columnist – knee-deep in fancy quinoa, invites to juicing bars and nutritional yeast as a condiment – I confess that I have quit processed food almost entirely. I am at least two years clean since my last Greggs cheese pasty. My fridge is filled with the rainbow of fresh colours that nutritionist Amelia Freer advises us to eat. I am the perfect example of the working-class woman who took notice of all the health warnings. I spent time in California, where my colleagues lived on goji berries and activated sprouts and no one had more than 10% body fat. Their skin gleamed, their bones stayed dense and no one was off work with gout. I cut refined carbs, factory foods and chemical flavourings from my life. What I am left with, alongside a Holland & Barrett loyalty card and a smaller waist, is a confused and jumbled identity. Every Christmas (yes, I know we’re in late February) my very kind family always gift me a large box of After Eight Mints, due to my love of all things mint this has practically become a tradition (apart from the disappointing Christmas of 2014 which we shall not mention). Slowly word spread of just how easily pleased this baker is when it comes to gifts & now I find myself with a plethora of bottle green boxes every year. Now much as I love our local East of England Co-op, it isn’t the only supermarket running Christmas special offers. Unilever no longer produces the brand in Canada. It is sold in Australia and New Zealand under the Streets brand. It is sold in Italy in all supermarkets by Algida, and in Israel by Strauss, under the name Fantasia ("פנטסיה") [8] as well as Germany, [9] Greece [10] and Austria. [11] It is sold in Japan by Morinaga & Company. In Finland, Viennetta is sold under the Ingman brand. [12] Fashion stylist: Kara Kyne. Prop stylist: Elena Horn.

I recognise Kay’s descriptions of going to see your gran, who will tell you you have got fat, then bring out a plate piled high with Breakaways and Penguins. Or sedentary Sundays in the 80s, when true happiness was your family lazing around watching Bullseye with a big tray of cake. I believe that, for huge swaths of this country – and this very much includes Brits whose families arrived here from other parts of the world in the 50s, 60s and 70s – the eating of processed food is our real shared British cultural heritage.

The two favourite flavours still exist, Mint and Vanilla, and Strawberry joined the range specially for summer 2013. In 2007, to celebrate the brand's 25th birthday, a 22.7 metres (74ft) long Viennetta was made, setting the world record for longest ice cream.

Every time I walk by a supermarket ice cream area my eyes go to the place where I find a Viennetta while my mind wander to my childhood when having a slice of Viennetta was a show that was involving all senses. From the eyes being amazed by the waves on the top, to the crunch of the many chocolate layers, to the great taste that my mouth was sure would enjoy soon.

You can feast your eyes on the individual shopping lists down at the end of this post, but basically the Co-op was indeed the winner for the same branded frozen food. Who am I without processed food? Am I even working class any more? I certainly still have to work. But I have spent years in the north railing against my family for adding Anchor squirty cream to already creamy items, for loving a Toby carvery. I have stood at Christmas gatherings reminding people that the only way not to gain weight in December is to eat no Quality Street or mint Matchmakers at all. The words “preachy tosspot” surfaced from some of my closer family. I suppose I was trying to be helpful. Or trying to communicate my newer, fresher religious awakening. Sugar is the false god. The real saviour – gather round, people – is a Fitbit and fresh air. I believe that at the heart of the processed-food debate is class war. Delicious, fructose-syrup-drenched, MSG-sprinkled class war. So, while I have no doubt Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall and hapless Moby, who argues food stamps shouldn’t pay for junk, are sincere, I wonder if they really know what they are up against, or how the noises they make really sound.Wave after wave of soft ice cream flowing over layer upon layer of chocolate deliciousness – is it any wonder that Viennetta ice cream is such a firm family favourite? The worst part and the most disappointing of all is the watery taste of the ice cream. If I would be asked to taste it blindfolded and guess the taste of it I would probably think I am having some crushed ice. So yes the Co-op is cheaper if you’re buying the whole lot, but suddenly the savings aren’t looking so huge. Watch out for the individual items Viennetta is a British brand of ice cream dessert made by Unilever and sold under the various Heartbrand brands around the world. The original Viennetta consists of several rippled layers of ice cream separated by thin layers of sprayed-on compound chocolate. It is now available in many flavours, including vanilla and mint.

Yes, they look like tiny offerings from Satan. No, they are not a superfood. But I ate a plate of these at 7am with a very bad red-wine hangover and I was restored. Reheated frozen potato can be dry and textureless, but this is moist, crunchy and quite delicious. Pairs well with a big scoosh of Blue Dragon sweet chilli dipping sauce, a pint of Gold Blend, 400g of ibuprofen and a long stare out the window. 5/5Even if you aren’t feeding the 5,000 for Christmas, those are great veg prices for many more side dishes, soups and potato-based meals.
