7-Eleven Slurpee Fun Facts [1]
- In 1967 the ICEE became known as the “Slurpee.” The name was created by 7-Eleven agency director, Bob Standford, for the sound made when drinking the frozen drink.
- In 2004, 7-Eleven created an edible Slurpee straw.
- Winnipeg, Manitoba was crowned the Slurpee Capital of the World for the thirteenth time in a row in 2012.
- In 2007, as part of the Kwik-E-Mart promotion for the feature film The Simpsons Movie, Slurpees at 7-Elevens were renamed “Squishees” and sold in special collector cups.
- In Australia, free Slurpees are given away on November 7 because it is the 7th day of the 11th month.
- Most Slurpee flavors are certified kosher “parve” as well as halal. The Diet Pepsi flavor uses sodium caseinate as an anti-freezing agent, giving it the status of kosher dairy. Which flabors are not kosher? The Pina Colada, Twizzler Strawberry, Tropicana Grape Wild Strawberry and Monster Black flavors.

I grew up with 7 Elevens but do not have any near me now. I miss them especially the slurpees.
