You know how sometimes a drink is so good you think, I want to take a bath in this? No? You’ve never thought that? Well, no matter your answer, ICEE is here to both introduce and fulfill that need for you. In another edition of Products No One Asked For, ICEE makes bath bombs.
This form of pampering yourself via your favorite childhood summer beverage was spotted by Instagrammer @dadbodsnacks at Dollar General. The bag has three bath bombs, one of each “flavor:” Lemonade, Cherry and Blue Raspberry. It also comes in hand sanitizer form. What's more, you can also find the bath bombs on sites like Amazon, where they are sold alongside Airheads bath bombs. This brings us to the squeaky clean elephant in the room: Why, exactly, are companies that make edible things applying those flavors to items that are decidedly not edible?
We can’t argue that a lemonade, cherry, or blue raspberry bath bomb probably smells delicious. It’s just a weird combo when you consider an ICEE’s association with cooling down versus a bath’s association with warming up. Or that, oh yeah, an ICEE is a thing you can safely drink and a bath bomb is not. The back of the bath bombs’ packaging reads, “BATH FIZZIES ARE NOT A FOOD PRODUCT. DO NOT EAT...KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN EXCEPT UNDER ADULT SUPERVISION.”

ICEE bath bombs may be a fun, nostalgic, and sweet-smelling addition to your unwinding session in the bath, but they would definitely require a hiding place if you have kids in the house. We can’t say we’re not curious about these fizzies, but proceed with caution...
