Oh, this is handy, I specifically avoid these guys.

Not for ethical reasons or anything, just I had these weird frozen meatballs from them when I was like 7 and nearly vomited myself to death in a holiday caravan’s bedroom before collapsing unable to move for an hour, conscious the entire time and simply unable to make my body respond. 1/10, not reccommended.

BilboTBaggin ,

Wait, they make meatballs? I thought it was just ice cream

mumblerfish ,

I guess they mean unilever? That is the company that owns that brand at least, iirc.

PoopBuffet ,

Just looked it up because I too was unsure of this. There is a Wall’s meats, but they are no longer related. Unilever owns Wall’s ice cream but they sold off Wall’s meats in 1994. The logos are different and the meats one only operates in the UK. So this map is useless for avoiding dodgy meatballs.

Wall’s Ice Cream. Good Humor in the US.

Thank you. And wow.

I don’t get it.

FoxyGrandpa ,

I’m thinking escort services?

Dunstabzugshaubitze ,

Nope, ice cream company.

PonyOfWar ,

Unilever‘s ice cream brand has various different names in different countries.

KazuchijouNo ,

Do you mean it’s not called “Helados Holanda”???

CosmoNova ,

I think most of it comes from buying already established brands and then rebranding them, but keeping their name.

That’s what happened in Brazil with kibom, quality went to shit.

Viking_Hippie ,

Same with Frisko in Denmark, except the quality remained roughly the same.

They shrinkflated the fuck out of it, though.

Streets in Australia.

gerbler ,

Legit forgot the name for a second. I was frantically scrolling across Europe for a reminder.

cordlesslamp ,

Wall’s are the worst ice cream.

Viking_Hippie ,

We found it! The one thing Belgium and Portugal have in common!

Aggravationstation ,

Very interesting. Does anyone know if it’s a case of them buying out local brands in a country, trying to make their brand sound like a local one or a mix of the two?

AllNewTypeFace ,
@AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space avatar

IIRC, they bought out local companies, and gradually replaced their branding with the corporate standard.

Bezier ,
@Bezier@suppo.fi avatar

Not sure about the others, but Ingman used to be a local brand.

ChilledPeppers ,

From what ive heard, their original name was bought when they moved to their second country so they just use whatever name, altho I have no source for that
