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.
Wait, they make meatballs? I thought it was just ice cream
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.
Bless you for doing the leg work <3

I remember this advert from the 90s
I guess they mean unilever? That is the company that owns that brand at least, iirc.
In Australia I’m pretty sure it’s “Streets”.
Streets Ahead
Stop trying to coin that phrase, Pierce
Coined and minted.
Wall’s Ice Cream. Good Humor in the US.
Thank you. And wow.
I can’t remember ever having Good Humor (branded) that didn’t come off of an ice cream truck back when I was a kid.
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?
IIRC, they bought out local companies, and gradually replaced their branding with the corporate standard.
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
Not sure about the others, but Ingman used to be a local brand.
In NNY it’s called momcorp.
On the Moon, we have Momazon.
I don’t get it.
Unilever‘s ice cream brand has various different names in different countries.
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.
Same with Frisko in Denmark, except the quality remained roughly the same.
They shrinkflated the fuck out of it, though.
Well, at least they’re not ISIS
Do you mean it’s not called “Helados Holanda”???
I’m thinking escort services?
Nope, ice cream company.
50 shades of red
Streets in Australia.
Legit forgot the name for a second. I was frantically scrolling across Europe for a reminder.
Wall’s are the worst ice cream.
We found it! The one thing Belgium and Portugal have in common!
And netherlands :)
They’ve also both been part of the Spanish empire at some point.
Everyone here saying their ice cream sucks and they never buy it, I don’t think you realize Magnum and Cornetto are this brand. Those are the world’s best selling ice cream brands
I mean sure, it’s not the greatest ice cream on Earth, but it’s not meant to be. It’s the cheapest ice cream I’m prepared to eat. If it’s cheaper than Walls, it’s probably not even legally allowed to be called ice cream.
I personally have to like it, since I live in the country where the company was once a part of Mjölkcentralen (RIP). Long before it was owned by Unilever.
It’s 50% of the market here.
Much better than Nestle. Cornetto chocolate cone taste like Chocolate. Nestle chocolate taste like ice with a little milk colored brown.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen this brand in Norway… Hennig Olsen and Diplom is have the market cornered for “ice cream on a stick”.
I’m assuming it’s because we don’t think our Norwegian neighbors deserve it.
Inmarco (Инмарко), not Algida in Russia.
But yeah, this is curious.
Kibon in Brazil
❤️Free market competition❤️
There are other brands you know…
