I’ve bought these ice cream beads many times and have never run into the freezer burn issue – it must have something to do with the handling and distribution process. My favorite flavor is Cookies n’ Cream. I’ve also bought MolliCoolz to serve at my friend’s birthday party and they were a big hit. People like them because they are different and really fun to eat.

In fairness re: the freezer burn - the fault may lie with the grocer. If the product is not kept at below-freezing temperatures at all times, it will begin to thaw and condensation will form. Once the product is refrozen, the droplets become those crystals you found throughout. It happens at almost every grocery store - they either lack the manpower or the inclination to get everything unloaded from the delivery truck and into the freezer cases quickly enough. That kind of temperature fluctuation is also what makes bagged salad mixes go slimy so quickly. Having worked at Trader Joe's for a few years, I saw both (freezer burn and slimy produce) happen more often than not.

Hate it. I will always eat only the ice cream of the past or the present. I hate the ice cream of the future. Hate it. I will always eat only the ice cream of the past or the present.

They're like 5 bucks for a tiny cup. Totally not worth it. They sell Dippin Dots at the shop below my apartment. They’re like 5 bucks for a tiny cup.
