I so sometimes chew ice, I eat frozen mangos like popcorn, never a hint of brain freeze doing that.
I do get near instant brain freeze from eating slushies through a straw though.
The more you put it up against your palate, the more likely the brain freeze, so maybe how one chews ice makes a difference here.
