Ice Cream That's Out of This World

My brother and I thought that this was the best thing about the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum. I bought it a few years back for his birthday.

Ice Cream That's Out of This World

I took my mom to the Omni Theatre yesterday for Mother's Day, and I'm happy to report - the museum shop STILL SELLS astronaut ice cream! I was incredibly tempted to buy some, but settled for a rock candy pop instead.

YES! This was totally the best part of the Museum of Science! I completely agree. I looked forward to the astronaut ice cream so much. My dad also ws very disappointed in my science acumen.

Oooooo...I totally forgot about that stuff! It was the highlight of our 5th grade trip to Smithsonian Air & Space Museum. It was almost at urban legend status for all of us on the way (think Greyhound bus with 40 5th graders driving from Nashville to Washington D.C.).

I wonder if they sell it at Kennedy Space Center?

Since I went to Space Academy Levels 1 and 2, (space camp for older kids). I too, enjoy the astronaut ice cream! They usually sell it at places like REI and other camping stores if people are really craving it!

They even make a version of it (with I think less sugar) for dogs!

For those of you in the New York City area, you can get your immediate fix of astronaut food at Mars 2002, where my almost five year old just received his first sampling. He was probably as thrilled as you were when you were seven.. Killjoy that i am, I had to read all of the awful articial ingredients in the package and only allow him to eat a small amount.

Oh my goodness, I totally did the same thing at the Space Museum...I LOVED that stuff! It's been years...maybe I should copy you and order some online.

How funny! I was just talking about the museum of science and my love of the astronaut's freeze dried ice cream to my boyfriend! I'm stuck in Atlanta these days and I was going on and on about how much I miss Boston (for a variety of reasons). That stuff was great to suck on, I loved the weird texture and the flavor was great. My parents never understood what I saw in it though. :-)

damn, I was so excited to get some astronaut ice cream from this site and try and see how disgusting the chicken and beef dinners probably are =D but minimum $15 for shipping! I'll just go to the Natural History Museum in Manhattan, they've got the ice cream hookup there. Or maybe I can get people to chip in...
