Icicles, yummy or not? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

It's that time of year again, when icicles form from rooves and fences, and anything else that can drip water.....here's my question....
HAVE YOU EVER SUCKED ON AN ICICLE, AND, CONSIDERING THE WHOLE POLUTION THING, WOULD YOU DO IT NOW?

(As for myself, i used to suck on them when i was small, but, by the time i was 8 or 9 , they started tasting sort of like dirt, so i stopped )

Chocoholic · 11-21-2008, 05:07 PM

Yes, I have. I used to eat snow too. I haven't done either one in years.

Occasionally, if I'm ooutside and it's snowing and no one is watching, I'll catch a few snowflakes on my tongue.

AB · 11-21-2008, 05:14 PM

I did it when I was a kid, but wouldn't do it now. lol!

TripperFan · 11-21-2008, 05:17 PM

For sure as a kid, but now I realize just what all is in those things. You might as well munch on a handful of dog poo!

I'll pass and stick to popsicles and Mr. Freezies only now.

I did stuff like that when I was a kid, but knowing what I do now I would never attempt it ever again.

WOW, I have never in my entire life, sucked on an icicle; but, then again, icicles are not that common in San Diego

Just once in my life, would I like to catch a snowflake on my tongue. To me, that sounds like fun

BarneyFife · 11-21-2008, 09:53 PM

No. I had snow cream when i was a kid though, but will never eat it again.

InspectorExstead · 11-22-2008, 12:25 AM

ditto to that!!

TripperFan · 11-22-2008, 11:11 AM

Not what's it's cracked up to be really. No taste and they melt the second they hit your tongue.

You end up getting more snow in your eyes and eyelashes and look a little goofy standing there looking up with your tongue hanging out!

We've got snow already, but at least since I've moved to the city it should be a little better this year. Last year it seemed like it would just never stop.

PunkyP0WER · 11-22-2008, 03:57 PM

once in a while i'd scoop up some fresh fallen snow and take a taste as a kid.

James"Thunder"Early · 11-22-2008, 04:19 PM

It's unsanitary, I'd never do that.
