Do you find it takes too much time to prepare a frozen burrito in a microwave? And after waiting impatiently for two minutes, you bite into a cold outer layer surrounding an inner core of molten lava? Wouldn’t it be nice to simply grab something from the freezer and dig in?

From the maker of Freezies comes Ice Pockets, the slushy snack for people on the go! Made from our patented combination of purely synthetic ingredients, you can enjoy a variety of flavours such as cold pizza, leftover meatloaf, and many more.

Sold only at choice truck stops near you.

Story Old — Poor Jimmy

Jimmy the Nose had flipped on Bobby the Brain, a smuggler of South African diamonds, known as “ice”. Wire taped to his chest, Jimmy was meeting with Bobby about the incoming shipment. Two guys Jimmy didn’t know were already with Bobby.

“Stevie, Davie, this is Jimmy. Ok — make sure the shit is genuine. There’s a lot of synthetic ice floating around and I’m not going to deliver glass or zirconium to our buyers, got it? Here’s the details…”

Later, the cops raided the purported delivery site, but all they found was Jimmy, dead, with the mic tucked in his pocket.
