It says Algida on my country (correctly), but back when I was a kid it was Eskimo. It might be a false memory but I also remember Langnese for a short time, but it could have been the foreign TV channels (Pro7, RTL, Sat1).

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.

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

Do you mean it's not called "Helados Holanda"????

I'm thinking escort services?

Nope, ice cream company.

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

Thank you. And wow.

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?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

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