So, for the first time ever, I ate astronaut ice cream - a dehydrated ice cream sandwich! The vanilla ice cream and chocolate cookie crust were packaged in the same white paper ice cream sandwiches have been wrapped in since their creation, but it was nice that the paper didn’t stick!

Although I expected the experience to be absolutely disgusting, I was pleasantly surprised. Once the ice cream has a chance to rehydrate in my mouth, it really did taste just like an regular old ice cream sandwich. The only real difference I found was the sandwich had a strange crunchy, starchy-like texture (like the marshmallows from Lucky Charms).  While eating it, I thought that maybe being an astronaut wouldn’t be so bad afterall…
