I picked up some up at walmart and are they ever good. There are two kinds in a package....lemon and strawberry and they are not only less calories then ice cream they are very refreshing. Have you tried the Italian ices?

we are italian icee fans from way back into our childhood. I grew up in an italian town and these were everyone's favorite summertime treat. there did not use to have so many different flavors. I still like lemon the best.

It would be like freezing lemonade and then eating it with a spoon....they are light and delicious and low in calories.

No I haven't tried Italian ice in fact, have never heard of it. Glad you explained here. Does sound like a very refreshing treat and something I would try. Is it similar to some of the other ice cream treats out there such as the popsicle encased in plastic that all the kids love?

Oh these are so great. I love to eat this while sitting at the pool on a nice warm suny day.

Italian Ice sounds good. Is it a dairy product? I am looking for something cold and delicious for summer...I am allergic to anything with dairy in it. It sounds very good. If anyone knows of similar products that are non-dairy...write in.

They are a nice refreshing treat in the summer especially! I've purchased the WalMart ones and love the inexpensive price to go along with the tasty treat!

Is an Italian ice like a snow cone?

It's like concentrated fruit juice put in a cup and you eat it with a spoon...

I can't say as I have ever heard of them. Are they like ice cream or something else?
