In a surprising but unanimous blind taste test, Meiji Super Cup vanilla ice cream was voted superior to Haagen Dazs vanilla.
| Super Cup | Haagen Dazs | |
| Color | Yellow | Beige |
| Flavor | Mild vanilla start to finish | Strong alcohol aftertaste |
| Texture | Airy with soft lumps | Dense and creamy |
| Price | 100 yen/200ml | 250 yen/120ml |
| Web | スーパカップ | ハーゲンダッツ |
Maybe our three person sampling wasn’t statistically significant, but we were amazed by how much we disliked the Haagen Dazs and enjoyed the domestic brand. And at quadruple the cost, how can we ever buy Haagen Dazs again?
