Katherine Pendrill — May 15, 2019 — Lifestyle
Ice cream season is almost upon us and Walmart is gearing up with a new Bubble Gum Ice Cream sold under its Great Value brand. While the idea of bubble gum-flavored ice cream is nothing new, this frozen treat comes with actual pieces of bubble gum inside it.
Originally spotted by the Instagrammer @JunkFoodMom, Walmart's Bubble Gum Ice Cream is a pastel pink ice cream that is made "with Bubble Gum Candy Pieces." The candy pieces in question look very similar to the rainbow-hued Chiclet chewing gum created by Mondelēz International. The result is a cool and creamy treat, infused with the fruitiness of bubble gum.
With unicorn-themed treats continuing to dominate store shelves, this pretty pink dessert is sure to satisfy consumers.
