The major problem with this product is the false advertising. There are more cherries on the cardboard packaging box than are actually in the product! And, YES, this is verifiable by anyone who gets conned buying their products!

Breyers Ice Cream is a brand of ice cream owned by Unilever (part of their United States Good Humor-Breyers unit).

In 1866, as America recovered from the Civil War, William A. Breyer of Philadelphia hand-cranked his first gallon of ice cream. It was a special ice cream consisting of rich cream, pure cane sugar, fresh fruits, nuts and other natural flavors—some of the very same ingredients used today. He sold it to his neighbors with the promise that his ice cream was made with the finest natural ingredients. Word spread quickly, and Breyers Ice Cream was soon declared Philadelphia’s best. Breyer opened his first retail ice cream shop in 1882.

In 1896, 30 years after Breyer made his first gallon of ice cream, his family set up its first wholesale manufacturing plant. William Breyer’s son Henry incorporated the business in 1908 and continued his father’s commitment to produce high quality ice cream. He added the now famous "Pledge of Purity" to every package of Breyers Ice Cream as his personal guarantee that Breyers was to use the highest quality, all natural ingredients available. Currently, the pledge is carefully worded to only include the ice-cream portions of the product, so as to exclude the frequently non-natural ingredients in the mix-ins.

They have a large plant in the town of Framingham, Massachusetts, outside Boston.

Breyers is often confused with Dreyer's ("Edy's" in the Eastern United States), which has led to a popular misconception that it is an imitation or knock-off brand.
