A Real Squishee machine

Squishee (sometimes spelled Squishy or Squishie) is a fictional frozen drink from The Simpsons TV series, usually purchased at the fictional Kwik-E-Mart which is managed by Apu. It is an apparent reference to 7-Eleven's Slurpee. In the fifth season episode of The Simpsons, Boy-Scoutz N the Hood, Bart and Milhouse go on a "Squishee bender" after drinking a squishee that was made entirely from syrup. In the thirteenth season episode The Sweetest Apu, Apu has the Squishee machine replaced with one of a similar drink called the "Smooshie," whose flavors reportedly include shopping bag and dog fur.

The fictional version of Squishees are reputed for being dangerous to health - Squishee flavorings have, if ingested in sufficient quantities, hallucinatory properties. According to the Simpsons comic, the Squishees allegedly contain no natural ingredients (not even pure water), create dangerous cases of brain freeze (Homer Simpson is apparently immune to this effect), and are even described as "a thick, gloopy, tooth-rotting mixture of crushed ice and syrup". Flavors include: blue, red, lime green, Chutney, Wheatgrass, Champagne, and the Twenty-One Syrup Salute. Many other random flavours appear in the comics, including Chinese New Year, Plum, Raita and the black-coloured "Squish of Death" (which causes spontaneous vomiting).
