In need of ice cubes for a party, I went to the grocery store to purchase a ten pound bag. I noticed that the bag offered no product information. Our health conscious guests would want that for the ice used in their drinks. I asked the store clerk but was told I would have to call the ice distributor for the answers.
The distributor provided this information:
Cubes origin: Made in China
Cube count per bag: 480 cubes
Serving size: 6 cubes per glass (80 servings per bag)
Calories per serving: Zero
Use by date: December 2030
Suggested Storage Temperature: 32 degrees
Cubes contain only natural ingredients with no gluten, salt or cholesterol
Cubes are 100% organic
Safety: These cubes should not be chewed as a tooth could be broken. Avoid stepping on spilled cubes as a fall could result. Cubes represent a potential choke hazard for children.

I felt reassured about serving ice cubes with the drinks. Why isn’t that information printed on the bag?

I hope you’re kidding. Chinese ice? Really? Do we have a refrigeration shortage around here?

Of course I am kidding on the China origin and the whole piece. They tried bringing them in by air through LAX but the freight was held and then diverted to Mexico for tequila cocktails.

Really ‘cube origin” from China!? BTW I think you can buy ice from Zaxby’s and Chik-fil-a and they’re that addicting to crunch soft round ice.

Keep cool, Kim. China tried only to see their profits melt away.

China? Did you say China? Like Allen, I hope you’re just joshing us. Ice is probably the LAST THING I would ever buy from China. I avoid any food that comes from China! Cool post, though. 🙂

The whole thing is a spoof. However, if Amazon thinks there is a buck to be made they will get into the ice cube business.
