The Ice Cream in the Ice Maker Incident

We have one of those ice/water dispensers in our refrigerator. The automatic ice maker quite literally takes up half of the freezer side of the unit, so we have very little storage space in our freezer. Often I will put something on the edge of the ice maker if I can't fit it on one of the lower shelves. Last week I put a half eaten container of Ben & Jerry's Half Baked flavored ice cream on the edge of the ice maker. Over the course of the week I managed to forget about the ice cream and so it ended up falling into the automatic ice maker. It then got buried deep into the ice holder with new ice on top and then today we started getting mysterious brown and white chunks of goo frozen on our ice...


This is the kitchen sink filled with an automatic ice maker full of chocolate tainted ice!

Here's half of the Ben & Jerry's container completely twisted around the spinning blade at the bottom of the ice holder.

And here's the other half of the Ben & Jerry's container, ripped to shreds and embedded with ice cubes.

Moral of the Story: Don't put things in an automatic ice maker!
