What Happened to Talenti?

Unilever, they are a company which makes soap. Anything they make, they make an effort to taste more like soap. The ice cream brands they bought up were no exception.

Came to ask wtf is Talenti but it sounds like it was an ice cream brand. Thanks for the post, it saved me a click.

It was pretty tasty stuff back in the day, but I was never much of a "premium brand" person.

It still is. It's the brand I glance over to find something better even though I've never tried it. It just looks pretentious, and I don't need that in my freezer.
