“Astronaut ice cream is an out of this world treat. Originally developed for space travel, our creamy-sweet freeze-dried astronaut food will give you a taste of outer space right here on Earth. Prepare for blast off with our fun new flavors!”

“When talking about freeze-dried food with someone, it usually isn’t very long before a question about freeze-dried ice cream comes up. Any space-loving kid can tell you the reason everyone has heard of freeze-dried ice cream is because astronauts love to eat it. Also known as astronaut ice cream or space ice cream, freeze-dried ice cream was developed by the Whirlpool Corporation under contract to NASA for the Apollo missions. However, it was most likely never actually used on any space missions.“
