But I don't know if I could have sucked it down fast enough. And then Leah would have started shrieking...<br /><br />Noel - Chocolate is not a friend to the traveler. And I'm thinking there was too much CO2 in the mix, since it was continuing to come out of the spigot when I returned for clean up. And Ben's icee was well-behaved.Lyzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13246510346329581281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5851687726423267832.post-10140097325214001102010-01-28T07:37:17.806-06:002010-01-28T07:37:17.806-06:00Looks like the ICEE expansion may be due to CO2 wh...Looks like the ICEE expansion may be due to CO2 which is part of the mix. cf http://www.google.com/patents/about?id=cYg1AAAAEBAJ&dq=4869072Noelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10445980997391559036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5851687726423267832.post-84490647241874147352010-01-27T23:04:33.818-06:002010-01-27T23:04:33.818-06:00While in Moline several years ago around Easter ti...While in Moline several years ago around Easter time, a colleague presented me with a chocolate easter bunny about the size of the palm of my hand..something to take home to the kids. When I got back to the hotel, I put it in my duffle bag. The bag sat in the car the last day of my trip: a spring day warmer than anything we had in Fargo for months. Still in winter life mode, I was oblivious to the physics going on in the back seat of my rental car during the course of the day.<br /><br />Coming out of security at the airport, I stuck my hand in my duffle bag to do some re-arranging only to find a warm brown goo on my fingers. The chocolate bunny had melted and some of the chocolate had escaped the box and gotton on stuff and the inside of the bag. Some cleaning was in order before heading to the gate for my flight.Noelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10445980997391559036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5851687726423267832.post-22471545836049051612010-01-27T22:31:16.953-06:002010-01-27T22:31:16.953-06:00why didn't you just start drinking the icee?why didn't you just start drinking the icee?.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13298987374162386910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5851687726423267832.post-51884514294572732102010-01-27T22:22:45.342-06:002010-01-27T22:22:45.342-06:00I can relate :) Bought an icee at a different Tar...I can relate :) Bought an icee at a different Target & the cashier says "only fill it 3/4 of the way or it will overflow". Me, being an icee expert, fill it just below the hole at the top of the cup. Grab my straw & walk towards the exit...only to watch my icee erupt into a volcano of blue mess all over everything. Floor, hands, jacket sleeve, garbage can. It was awful. I'll probably fill it halfway next time :)Staciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16825772588035895948noreply@blogger.com
