Did You Know?
- Ice expands by about 9% when water freezes.
- Crystal-clear ice forms when impurities and trapped air are minimized.
- A well-packed cooler can help ice last significantly longer than one with lots of empty space.
- Food-grade ice should be handled with clean hands or a dedicated scoop.
- Commercial ice is stored well below freezing to maintain quality until delivery.
