Which?

This is what a Vanilla ice cream tub looks like in Australia:

Water, Sugar, Milk Solids, Cream and/or Butter, Glucose Syrup (from Wheat), Maltodextrin, Vegetable Emulsifier (471), Stabilisers (410, 412, 415), Natural Vanilla Flavour, Natural Colour (160a), Reduced Fat Ice Cream contains minimum 4% Milk Fat

No idea about Australia, but where I live I get ice creams with an ingredient list that looks like this:

Milk, Figs & Sugar

Of course I can also get ice creams with all of the stuff you've listed, too, but the option exists.
