Brand: Country Club

Munch or Dump rates Country Club Ice Cream by Country Club DUMP — score 20/90.

Budget ice cream loaded with two corn syrups plus a stack of gums, emulsifiers, polysorbate 80 and carrageenan — engineered cheap, not made simple.

Why this verdict

Two corn syrups (corn syrup + high fructose corn syrup) added on top of sugar — three sweetener sources
Polysorbate 80 and carrageenan, gut-irritating emulsifiers/stabilizers linked to inflammation
Four thickeners stacked: cellulose gel, guar gum, cellulose gum, locust bean gum
Artificial flavor and annatto color instead of real ingredients doing the work
Cheap fillers replace the cream that should give the texture

Ingredients (16)

Milk (safe) — Whole dairy milk, a natural source of protein, calcium, and fat.
cream (moderate) — Real dairy fat, the one genuinely good base here, but heavily outnumbered.
Sugar (moderate) — Added sugar sitting ahead of cocoa; the main flavor driver here.
Corn Syrup (concerning) — Cheap glucose syrup; pure added sugar with no nutrition, here as the second-largest ingredient.
High Fructose Corn Syrup (concerning) — A second refined sweetener stacked on the first; fructose load is linked to fatty liver and metabolic strain.
Whey (safe) — Milk protein byproduct used for texture; harmless.
BUTTERMILK (safe) — A small amount of real dairy, mostly for flavor and the 'butter' association.
Cellulose gel (moderate) — Another processed cellulose bulking/stabilizing agent.
Guar Gum (moderate) — Thickener to fake creaminess; fine in small amounts but a marker of cheap formulation.
Cellulose Gum (moderate) — Processed wood-pulp fiber used as a cheap bulking thickener; texture filler, not food.
Mono & diglycerides (concerning) — Processed-fat emulsifier, appears twice; a hidden source of trans fats.
Locust Bean Gum (safe) — Plant stabilizer; controls ice crystals.
POLYSORBATE 80 (concerning) — Synthetic detergent-emulsifier shown in studies to disrupt gut microbiota and the mucus barrier.
Carrageenan (concerning) — Seaweed-derived stabilizer linked to intestinal inflammation in animal studies.
Artificial Flavor) (concerning) — Lab-synthesized flavor doing the vanilla's job; a clear sign there's little to no real vanilla.
annatto (safe) — Natural colour from achiote seed; cosmetic, no nutritional point, rare allergen.
