Novelty Foods: June 2005 Archives

Jared pointed me to this CNN/Money article about Snapple's attempt to beat a 10-ton mark for world's largest ice pop. The dream was destroyed "when the enormous frozen pop turned into slush and spilled onto the streets of New York City." No one was reported injured by the 35,000 pounds of kiwi-strawberry sludge, but the area was closed off and the NYC Fire Department was called in to hose off the sidewalks.

Due to the unfortunate meltdown the Guinness World Records did not validate the attempt.
