Enjoy your ice cream just as the Astronauts do - the freeze-dried way! Astronaut Ice Cream, as well as other freeze-dried food items, have been aboard space missions since the early Mercury Missions. They continue to be used on NASA missions today.How is Astronaut Ice Cream Freeze-Dried? Freeze-drying, or lysophilisation, removes water from the ice cream by lowering the air pressure to a point where ice shifts from a solid to a gas. The ice cream is placed in a vacuum chamber and frozen until the water crystallizes. The air pressure is lowered, creating a 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 perfect freeze-dried ice cream sandwich!Net Weight 1 Ounce, Made in the USAProduced in a facility that also processes peanuts, milk, soy, wheat, gluten, egg and tree nut.Astronaut space food as used on NASA space missions Ready to eat straight from the packet Neapolitan freeze dried ice cream sandwich- vanilla, chocolate and strawberry Great as an unusual gift or stocking filler Buy More and Save UP To 20% OFF!Free Shipping in read more
