Things to ponder...

Everyone knows Slurpees and Icees are not the same. But where do Slush Puppies fit in? Third species, me thinks. Stil gives the brainfreeze, though. Ouch.

Don't slush puppies grow up to be sled dogs?

Dear Beth, I love you. That's all.

What is the difference between Slurpees and Icees?

[jackwabbit.livejournal.com]

Aside from the fact that Slurpees are infinitely better? At least when they aren't making the flavors too whack?

It's all in the mixture.

If you watch The Big Bang Theory, Sheldon Cooper agrees. ;)

Isn't the difference a 'brand name' thing? I mean I would rather have a 7-11 slushie than a WaWa wannabe.

Yes, it is, in that Slurpee, Icee, and Slush Puppy are all trademarked names. Slurpees are only sold at 7-11s, though. And they all taste different. I hadn't had a Slush Puppy in years until today. Got a cherry one. Tasted like cherry Kool-Aid or a cherry Jolly Rancher. Cherry Slurpees have that cherry soda flavor. Icees are somewhere in between. And the consistency is different, too.

You know how lemonpiefirefly said she thought of me when she heard Sheldon Cooper on Big Bang Theory go off on this? Yeah..,it's like that.

Coke is not Pepsi and neither one is Dr Pepper.

That's all there is to it.
