Maybe it's just me. But I can taste and smell the difference in ices. Like I can tell if it's store-bought. Or if it's tap water, or water from a bottle. Whose freezer[type of freezer] it was frozen in. Or if it's something at a restaurant or fast food place. What make of ice.
Such as mine. I can tell if the ice it from a freezer like mine, or in some one who doesn't have an ice machine in their freezer. Or if it's been frozen in trays. Or in bottles.
I don't know. It might just be me. But can anyone else tell?
