"Wooooah, that's good Squishee."

Fans of "The Simpsons" who found themselves in Austin, Texas this week had more than just Lone Star beer to quench their thirst. The world's first mobile Kwik-E-Mart popped up at the annual South By Southwest festival to serve up over 3,400 Squishees to Internet geeks, music fans and overstimulated locals in a custom food truck. They claim to have given out the frozen sugar water at a rate of "2.6 Squishees per minute."

Similar to the "Simpsons" ride and attractions at Universal Studios, the truck provided an "IRL" experience for fans of the show. The flavors available were "So Very Cherry" or "Give 'Em The Razz" and they were decent enough, although the truck refused to offer an all-syrup version that would send fans on a magical bender, a la Bart:

See photos from the Kwik-E-Truck's HQ below, including the debut of an intricately detailed Kwik-E-Mart LEGO set that will set you back $200 (if you must have it) when it comes out in May.
