SPACE FOOD-freeze Dried Astronaut Ice Cream (NEOPOLITAN) 
Clasificación de Clientes: - Great for a treat. A great product to buy as a one off but a little expensive. Unusual to say the least, like sucking on a flavoured block of polystyrene, but nice. Unusual to think how ice cream can feel warm on your tongue.
- Like a blob of flavouring.. It s like a sickly-sweet blob of powdery textured artificial flavouring.
Not sure what I was expecting but the freeze-drying process seems to have extracted all the good bits about Ice-Cream and replaced them with all the qualities of polystyrene. It *does* taste like Neopolitan though.
Later saw it cheaper in a high-street shop.
The service from the seller was brilliant but be careful : shipping is listed as per item. This isn t so bad when using the shopping basket but could be overlooked when using 1-Click. - SPACE FOOD - ASTRONAUT NEOPOLITAN -ICE CREAM . ASTRONAUT FREEZE DRIED SPACE FOOD...EXCLUSIVE TO STARWORKS Everyone wants to be a spaceman. But the harsh fact is, none of you lot will ever leave the planet. Unless of course you find the $200,000 Mr. Branson is charging for an out of this world experience, down the back of the settee.
Indeed mere mortals like us will never experience any of the pleasures of space travel. But maybe that s not such a bad thing. Who wants to spend their day doing daft slow-mo somersaults for the camera before emptying their bladder into a plastic bag? Not us. Having said that it would be quite nice to sample some of that strange nosh they eat up there in the outer limits.
Strawberries, Cinnamon Apple Wedges, Peaches and Bananas
Well now you can do exactly that without joining the space program thanks to these genuine pouches of Space Food. Developed for the Apollo missions, these deliciously healthy treats have been frozen to -40c, vacuum dried and sealed in special foil pouches. Manufactured by the same company that supplies nosh to NASA for Space Shuttle missions, Space Food is out of this world in terms of originality. It also melts in the mouth and is ready to eat straight out of the pack.
Neapolitan Ice Cream
But what about the taste Houston ? - and each one tastes exactly as it should, only a bit dryer. Understandable as Space Food is devoid of water crystals. We have to admit that the texture takes some getting used to but, to paraphrase JFK, We choose to eat these things not because they are chewy, but because they are crunchy. Or something like that.
Although these unusual snacks are designed to be eaten aboard a spacecraft you can always draw some knobs and dials on a cardboard box, clamber inside and pretend you re orbiting Earth. But that s almost as silly as flying to the sun at night to avoid being roasted alive. We digress. Space Food is the most original food this side of the stratosphere and it s perfect for packed lunches, parties and pretend space missions. But hurry, we expect these nifty pouches to rocket out of STARWORKS faster than you can say we have lift off. 3...2...1...Buy!
