Dry ice is a frozen form of carbon dioxide. It is used to keep items cold and frozen during shipping. Dry ice has a temperature of -109 degrees Fahrenheit (-78 degrees Celsius). It looks like regular ice, but it’s actually quite dangerous because it can cause serious burns if you touch it with your bare hands.

Do You Need A Permit To Order Dry Ice At Publix?
Dry ice is a solid form of carbon dioxide, which is used as a refrigerant. It is also used by some foodservice operators to keep perishables fresh while transporting them from one location to another.
The high temperature of the dry ice itself will keep the food cold during transport, but when it is removed from its packaging and placed in another container, the temperature will drop rapidly and cause any condensation inside the container to freeze instantly. Because of this characteristic, dry ice can be dangerous if not handled properly because it can cause severe burns if touched without proper protection.
