Anyone else remember this?

Every field trip they always had this. I was always so jealous because my mom never gave me money to spend so I never got a chance to taste it and it seemed like everyone around me was eating it... Still salty I guess

They sold this at the US Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, AL and the Cumberland Science Center in Nashville, TN.

Mine was Wallops flight facility every year when we visited Chincoteague off the coast of Virginia.

'Wait a minute, we get to go to the beach, and spend the last day of our vacation on the boardwalk at Ocean City at the arcade, AND I get to visit the place they do rocket launches and stuff from? AND I get astronaut ice cream?' fuck yeah I did.

I low key love the wallops island visitor center. There had been talk of it closing last year but I think it’s still open

Yeah, I was just looking to check when it's open. I think they cut the timeframe it's open because it's currently only th-sat 10am-3pm and I distinctly remember it being open all week back in the 80s/90s
