You attach the word "space" to anything and you've got my interest, so when I stumbled upon Freeze-Dried Ice Cream with a picture of a rocket ship on the front, I pretty much erupted with joy.
Freeze-Dried Ice Cream is the real deal; it's what NASA astronauts eat when they want to indulge in an icy delicious treat. The futuristic food comes in neopolitan flavors of strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate, but what I'm really curious about is the texture of the stuff. Is it harder or softer than regular ice cream? Is it icier? Does chocolate taste the same in space as it does on Earth? So many questions that can only be answered by giving this exciting intergalactic treat a try.
