I assume you mean Breyer's. I have have a personal connection with Breyer's, as I worked in an Ice Cream factory for 10 years and made their products. It's funny that you call it dairy desert and not ice cream, because I don't think they can legally call it ice cream anymore. When I first started working there, we still made ice cream, but they eventually started removing milk fat solids out of it to lower costs and started replacing it with high fructose corn syrup and dextrose and shit like that. The funny thing is that the entire industry began a marketing campaign to explain the change as " now with less fat." Unwitting costumers were unaware that it is that fat(milk solids), that makes Ice Cream delicious. Most of our ice creams started out at 12-14% milk solids and eventually reduced all the way down to 6%. The new 'lowfat' ice cream was actually way worse for you because of the high fructose corn syrup and hard to digest additives. To really see the difference try some delicious Cold Stone Ice Cream which to this day contains 16% milk solids, this is what good ice cream tastes like.
Also on a gross little side note, the fruit used in these product would come to us in 5 gallon buckets, it would take about twenty buckets for a 200 gallon batch. When we would open the buckets to dump them in ,most of the buckets had a layer of mold floating on top, and we would just dump them in. Approved by management because you are allowed so many parts of contaminate per million. Quality Control would test product throughout the day and if it tested positive for e. Coli, we would just extend the hold time in the freezers until it tested safe. Some product would within the freezer for 45 to 60 days. So if you ever got popsicles or ice cream that has an odd texture, it's because it tested positive and had to sit in holding for an extended period.
