Usually Haagen Daz chocolate or mint chocolate chip. I've learned that ice cream isn't something you can cheap out on, it's worth the extra buck to avoid a icy and gummy monstrosity.

>BUYING ICE CREAM THAT HAS THICKENERS APART FROM EGGS, ANY YEAR

Even plain vanilla from B&J has guar gum, carrageenan, and they use liquid sugar which has water and dilutes it more. The liquid sugar is probably why they add more thickeners.

A few varieties of Haagen-Dazs have thickeners too, but their vanilla/coffee/peanut butter chocolate are just basically egg, milk, cream, sugar, and flavoring.

Ice cream with thickeners like guar gum and carrageenan have a grittier, less creamy texture.
