:lol: snowy
:D shaved

I can't enjoy any of the crunchy form...so I now have tennis elbow from standing hunched-over my little ice shaver. If anyone knows of an ice shaver where you don't have to stand there and hold the power button, I'd love to hear about it!

My favorite is called "Glacier Ice" (it comes in 10 lb. bags). I bought a small freezer just so I can have four Glacier Ice bags at home at a time.

I usually smash up the bag of ice with a metal meat tenderizer, then run the biggest chunks through an ice crusher. Then, this and the finer chips gets dumped into a "BIG Gulp" cup or 32 oz. plastic containers for later (another reason I'm glad I bought a freezer just for my "ice habit" :P ).

For times when I have to be in meetings or my husband and I are on the road, I make up 16oz. water bottles full of crushed ice and store them in the freezer, as well. While it is a lot work, these bottles of ice chips are easy to take along on trips.

My absolute favorite are those cubes that are formed from crushed ice. So when you bite into them they just crumble in your mouth. :D

Hi I'm new to this forum, but not new to chewing ice. I've been addicted to the stuff for almost all my life. I didn't start noticing the different types of ice until pretty recently and I have found the ice I prefer. I work in a hospital in the kitchen, which is where I think the best ice is found. Its extruded ice, similar to Sonic ice. We don't have a sonic here, but I have seen the commercials and know its similar in appearance. Anyway, I do leave work everyday with a huge 32 oz cup of this ice. I would take buckets of it home, but I'm not allowed. When I'm not at work, I love the ice from a local company called Good Time ice, or at least I think its local. I can get it at Walmart and Rutters(a conveniance store). Its somewhat soft and easy to chew. Well, I am just so excited to find there are other like me, and that I'm not crazy, thank you for creating this site!

Hello Christine!

Good to hear from you. Many hospitals do have excellent ice (I love the ice in our hospital's ER). Sonic ice is "pelletized" - small little nuggets that look like they have been extruded, so it is probably made by the same type of machine that you have at work.

I also like Glacier Ice (in bags). WalMart and the Giant supermarkets are the only ones in eastern PA that seem to carry it. Glacier Ice seems to have a "softer" consistency than other brands.

Happy ice chewing!

Janbo

I truly wish we had a Sonic around here. There is a small ice cream place close by that also uses that type of ice, and they will fill a cooler with it for free! :D

I like hollow ice. Why do some ice makers make hollow ice? Many times I will choose it over food!
