I loved icicles as a kid.
I loved to break them off - off anywhere and promptly suck on them. I can still feel the delicious cold melting and that feeling I was getting away with something, that somehow this was equivalent OT freebee mana!
Now that was a couple centuries ago! And the amount of pollutants in the environment hopefully wasn't as high, but proportionally probably was!
But this morning when I saw a neighborhood kid, break an icicle off the fender of my car and immediately bring it to his mouth my entire being cringed in horror! Where was his mother??!
But, as my husband observed laconically, "it builds the immune system"!
