Does anyone know where dry ice can be purchased? I am interested in knowing where to get not terribly large chunks, maybe about a square foot by half a foot, for use in coolers to keep stored food cold for a weekend, for example. I happen to know where I could "liberate" some around MIT, but: (a) I'd rather honestly buy some rather than take it; (b) I'd imagine that dry ice for lab use might very well be contaminated with stuff that I might not want to put next to food. -- Ping Huang (INTERNET: pshuang@mit.edu), probably speaking for himself

PING!
You should have asked. When I was in highschool we used to get it at
the Concord Ice Company. It's in concord and right of route 2 on the
same road that Walden Pond is on. Hope al goes well.

Dry ice can be purchased at The Brookline Ice Company, 610 Brookline ave. Turn left at Kenmore square, past Fenway, past Simmons, past Harvard Med, on your left. Real cheap. -- Jonathan Litt littlitt@mit.edu

Hi, this isn't an answer to your questions, but I thought you might like to know that on a recent camping trip we kept food fresh and cold (including meat and dairy products) for 4 days in a Coleman 54-qt cooler with a large block of regular ice. The meat was frozend in advance, as were all of the beverages (well, not the beer) that went in there. Just a thought. Susanne
