Slurpees....

[sharonk 23]

I think i know the answer but then i'm not so sure so here goes....

Are the slurpees from 7-11 carbonated?!?! Man i could go for one of the sugar free ones but then im not sure if they are carbonated or not?!

My guess is they all are because that's how they stay so light and fluffy...Anyone know for certain??

Are slurpees officially gone forever?

I believe they are. They pump co2 into the machine during the freezing process. That's why I stick to sugar free sno cones!

If they are it really isn't noticable. When and if I do drink soda I drink it half flat (Doc says thats fine as long as it's not bubbly) and I think the slurpee is less carbonated than my flat soda. Like my flat soda, I stir the slurpee around anyway so it flattens it and makes it a little watery, it's easier to drink that way. I drink a sugar free slurpee once a week and haven't had problems. And FYI, just because it's sugar free doesn't mean it's calorie free, there's 20 calories and 8 carbs per 8oz! So be careful, because I can easily drink a 32oz and not even bat an eye.. they're so good.

I'm 49 and never had a slurpee. We don't have 7-11's. I've traveled a lot, but never stopped for a slurpee. Got to find me one.

Actually, the carbonation is dead in slurpees. The freezing makes it flat. If you let a slurpee melt you'll notice there's zero carbonation.

I had one last month because I was craving the taste of Coke. I just had a small as a treat and it totally took care of my craving.

I'm not absolutely sure....but I think they are carbonated. I have had the smallest size, sugar-free slurpee. I drank it slow, but felt burpee...so I havent had one since.

I live a few feet of a 7-11 and yes they are carboated. But the carbonation is so minute, that you hardly notice, its basically flat. Like Mis73 said, freezing kills it.

As Mis say's , freezing kills the carbonation.
