Space Ice Cream?

Back in middle school (ages ago) I remember visiting a science museum for one of our field trips, and at the end of the day we got to visit the gift shop. My two friends and I browsed around, and found this stuff that said ice cream on it but was not in the freezer (minds BLOWN). We obviously put all our money together and purchased the Neapolitan flavor. We slowly opened the packaging and put the chalky textured "ice cream" in our mouth, and for me that was when the magic began, it sat on my tongue and melted into warm tasting ice cream. I absolutely loved it, and you can imagine my excitement running into this variety of freeze dried ice cream.

The flavors I got were cookies and cream, ice cream sandwich , and neapolitan. I was so excited to try the new ones and re-live that memory of the neapolitan flavor. 

This one was the Bearly Cold Polar Bear Freeze Dried Cookies & Cream Ice Cream Sandwich

This was the Astronaut Ice Cream Sandwich

This is still my favorite and it is the Mountain House Neapolitan Ice Cream

All the flavors were so fun to try. I would have probably enjoyed the first 2 more if they did not have the biscuit part, as I am the type of person who eats the filling of a cookie, but leaves the biscuit part for someone else to "enjoy". The flavors were all great, but of course the neapolitan was still my absolute favorite. I know some of my friends did not like the chalky texture, but I love how it goes from chalk to something that just melts in your mouth. YUM, I am making myself hungry for some. :) This is the perfect treat for colder days.

Have you ever tried this stuff? If so did you like it?
