I decided to get the pecker ice cubes as a fun way to liven up nights when my partner drank and I couldn't (due to being pregnant). They looked cute and I had purchased reusable ice cubes before that worked great so I thought I would give these a try.

They arrived in fairly simple packaging. Just a plastic tray stapled to a cardboard backing. When I took them out, they had an interesting smell to them. It wasn't enough to turn me off, but it was noticeable. There was liquid inside of each of them, about half full.

As soon as I washed and dried them, I stuck them in the fridge to harden. The next morning, I anxiously made myself a glass of water and plopped my new pecker cubes in it. One thing I noticed was that they didn't get my water very cold at all. And within a few minutes, the cubes were completely unfrozen.

After I got over my disappointment, I took a drink. YUCK! Something about my water didn't taste very good. I dumped out the glass, poured a new cup and took a drink. That tasted normal. I came to the conclusion that the peckers were what caused my water to taste gross.

But, I had to give them a second chance. So I washed them again, this time being more thorough, and put them in the freezer once more. The next morning, I made 2 glasses of soda. One of them I put regular ice cubes in, the other I used the pecker cubes in. Once again, I was disappointed in how fast they thawed and didn't even cool my drink. First I took a drink of the soda with the regular cubes in it. That glass tasted normal. I took a drink of the glass with the pecker cubes and once again, the taste was off.

Mind you, it wasn't as noticeable with the soda as it was with the water, but there was still something funky going on.

I decided to try it out on my boyfriend. Once again, I washed them and froze them. I made him 2 glasses of water. One with pecker cubes, one with regular cubes. He had the same problems. At least I knew it wasn't just my mouth!

These peckers are a cute idea, but unless there is a way to get rid of the taste they put off, I would leave them on the shelf. Invest in an actual ice cube tray with cube holes the shape of penis'.

To be honest, these have been thrown away. I just couldn't get over the flavor. I wish I liked them because I love the idea.
