NASA Freeze Dried Astronaut Banana Split Ice Cream Sundae - 6 count
Includes 2 each Astronaut Space Food Strawberries, Bananas and Neapolitan Ice Cream Sandwich -- when eaten together, they taste like a ice cream sundae! Originally developed for the early Apollo Space missions, real ice cream is frozen to -40 degrees and then vacuum dried and placed in a special foil pouch. Freeze drying removes water from the ice cream by lowering the air pressure to a point where ice shifts from a solid to a gas. How do they do it? The ice cream is placed in a vacuum chamber and frozen until the water crystallizes. The air pressure is lowered, creating a partial vacuum, forcing air out of the chamber; next heat is applied, vaporizing the ice; finally a freezing coil traps the vaporized water. This process continues for hours, resulting in a freeze-dried snacks. Dehydrated product will arrive in bite size pieces/chunks. Each 1 oz. 8 1/2" x 4 3/4" x 1" package is perfect for birthday party favors, stocking stuffers and more. (#7528) A ComputerGear exclusive. Item in stock unless noted above.Reviews
