Aside from Friendly's, there's a variety of popular brands that have shops in Massachusetts and/or have their products in stores throughout the Bay State.

What's Wrong with Gum Ingredients in Ice Cream?

The thing about having gums in ice cream is that they aren't really nutritious. Sure, they can improve textures and thicken up ice cream, but as the article mentions, gums can cause bloating or GI discomfort in some people. If you have sensitive digestion or are looking to cut out ice cream that has a bunch of processed junk in it, Häagen-Dazs can fill the bill.

Häagen-Dazs is an Easy Find for Massachusetts Shoppers

Häagen-Dazs can easily be found throughout Massachusetts, including all of your standard stores like Walmart, CVS, Stop & Shop, Costco, and many more. This means you can still consume delicious ice cream without consuming all the junk. It's time to enjoy the creamy goodness, guilt-free.
