Icee vs. Slurpee

Based on my limited experience with Icees, they're runnier so they're easier to drink, but they also melt faster. I think I prefer Icees.

Same here, Icees have always seemed to have less syrup and more carbonation. Probably similar to the way fountain sodas taste different at different restaurants I guess.
 
Despite what fritzo said
Icees have a wierder after taste than slurpees
And icees are more frothy IMO
And they taste more carbonated

Icees have a propriatary cherry and "blue" flavor that Slurpees don't use. Slurpees get their flavoring from Coke and Fanta. Otherwise, their cola flavors are the same as they both use Coke.
 
I have always preferred Slurpee over Icee, but that is not to say Icee is bad. I just prefer the flavor and flavor combinations that Slurpee has to offer and I favor the texture of Slurpee more. Except when the blasted machine isn't working and they turn out all runny - that's not good eats.
 
It seems kinda strange to pay so much for ice mixed with artificial flavour and color. Then again, I guess it's like that with a lot of things. Coffee = water drained through dirt. Don't even get me started with shaved ice because that one is just ridiculous, and tends to cost a lot.

If you came to Taiwan, you would change your mind about shaved ice. 😉

that's the thing; i'd choose slurpee cuz i can make my own crazy drink (pina colada + dr pepper or whatever)

but when it comes down to the core texture, i'd prefer icee because it just feels better sippin' on it



i <3 shaved ice
 
As somebody else said - its the same thing. Go to a 7-Eleven and look at a slurpee machines back - it will say icee on it.
