Rewind: The Kiddie Snow-Cone Machine from the ’70s
You'll be able to make your own homemade snow cones in a few hours, using only syrup and mother nature's finest. But poor Boomer kids in the '70s had to make do with this freaky looking abomination from Hasbro, which turned ice cubes into little rice-like chunks of "snow" for their summer treat.

That looks like a far more sensible way to make a snow cone!

In our house it was the Snoopy Sno-Cone machine - looks like it may have been a branded version of the same thing.
