Shell Introduces Ice Cream That You Can Grill With

3465 views

It looks like Shell has finally figured out a way to combine the awesomeness of ice cream with the grilling power of propane. It probably doesn't taste very good, though. (Thanks to swarrior216!)

This is going to make Hank Hill very happy.

So this explains the gassy feeling I get everytime I eat ice cream from there! Better stay away from the candles now..

OMG the used a new line instead of a comma!!!!!

@DerangedRoleModel: But not Fox, they cancelled the poor guy :(

Boy, let me tell you what.

or they mean they have propane, ice, and cream.

That reminds me of a sign I saw at a gas station outside of Galveston, TX about 20 years ago. The sign read, "We have dead bait snacks beer." "Dead bait" and "snacks" were on the same line and "beer" ran underneath it. I still laugh about it now and wonder what a dead bait snack might be.

When I get home, I'm lighting some candles, throwing on my Blair chenille robe, (so comfy!) and settling down with a big bowl of propane ice cream. It's Friday, I deserve to relax!

@undefined: Hopefully the beer is Alamo brand

I picked the wrong day to stop eating propane ice cream.

user-pic

But do they sell propane ice cream accessories?

user-pic

Taste the cream, not the steam.

user-pic

Whew! Close call there, you saved a bunch of consumers from accidentally not buying propane ice cream or 44oz lottos.

This isn't even a typo. You've dug through the bottom of the barrel and hit mud.

This is stupid.

I also seem to remember the following listed at SEVERAL movie signs across Southern California at the time...

Erin Brockovich

Until Ben & Jerry's says its a flavor, I'm not buying it!

Sometimes I guess when Consumerist has nothing to say, they play grammar nazi and we should all think how clever they are.

user-pic

@sanjsrik: Or perhaps they're trying to add a little light humor to the site. It can't be all debt, fraud, x didn't repair y, and poor customer service all the time you know.
Intertnets aren't all serious business.

@enthreeoh: can i get a "why is this on consumersit" T-shirt?

@robdew2: It's Friday and a slow news week. Chill.

We were driving through NY State near Cooperstown one year and saw a convenience store sign:

Ham
Ice Cream Sandwiches

We were repulsed :)

@menty666: You must be Jewish. Just Kidding

I'm thinking that flammable ice cream wouldn't be such a good treat.

user-pic

@saintpetepaul: @robdew2: Right, because they should never post anything funny once in a while.


Consumerism is serious business.

@Crabby Cakes: Uh, you might want to rethink the candles+flammable sleepware+propane ice cream combination...unless your definition of relaxation includes a Roman candle imitation.

Just a suggestion, anyway.

user-pic

Maybe they are in an area where there are lots of RVs with propane powered refrigerators? Beer for you, ice cream for the kids and propane so everyone can stay cool and delicious.

user-pic

@enthreeoh: For a second there, I thought I was on Failblog...

user-pic

@NPGeek: Well, this is seriously not funny, so do with that what you will.

user-pic

@sanjsrik: I can't believe you think an invention such as Propane Ice Cream doesn't require a post on every site.
(Is it flammable ice cream, or just propane flavored? More at 11)

user-pic

@MikeF74: Yeah, and apparently, if you play the lotto, you win a 44oz bottle of soda!

user-pic

@lockdog: "so everyone can stay cool and delicious."

Cannibal!

@menty666: Dude, it's not a "slow news week", check out the RSS feed.

user-pic

@MikeF74: Quick! Someone write an EECB!

user-pic

@skizsrodt: Obviously you've never had Baked Alaska.... mmmmm. (Yes, I know the ice cream itself isn't flammable)

user-pic

@SnowingCookies: Changing between the Dark Knight and Hancock, you get...

user-pic

@jeffbone: If it was flammable, it would say so. This tag says INflammable, so I think I'm safe.

user-pic

@robdew2: It's FRIDAY. I think he's having a little fun. Lighten up!

user-pic

@Crabby Cakes:

""Inflammable" means "flammable?" what a country!"

user-pic

On a hot day I can do TWO of those 44 oz sodas, esp for just a bit over a buck each.

user-pic

@gStein: I can get it embroidered on a Consumer Reports labcoat for you.

user-pic

@robdew2: I knew this story would draw a comment from you, because you seem to hate these types of stories. I admit this one isn't all that funny. But if you hate these types of stories, don't comment. The editors are judged on the number of page views their stories generate, as well as the comments. So if you don't like a story, just ignore it.

user-pic

Is the beer 9.99 dollars or 9.99 cents? I'm so confused!

user-pic

@robdew2: Yet another sad case of someone born without a sense of humour. Your donations of propane and ice cream can help us raise the funds we need for research and treatment. Please, won't you give generously so we can fight this terrible condition?

user-pic

@menty666: But what about bacon ice cream sandwiches?
