Can you ingest refrigerants from contaminated ice cubes?

Yes, it's possible to ingest refrigerants from contaminated ice. But the quantities will be small, and anyone who swallows a bit of "regular" refrigerant will likely not suffer any ill effects. Swallowing refrigerant isn't something that is high on the list of things of concern. In general it isn't something to "worry" about. The exception might be refrigerants based on ammonia, but if there was any of that in the ice, your nose would tell you the pungent stuff was there. There are a zillion different refrigerants. These refrigerants are very volatile. They want to turn to gas and get out of Dodge if they have any opportunity to do so. And they won't freeze at anywhere near the temperature that ice does. Refrigerant that "gets loose" in water that is being frozen to make ice would bubble out quickly. Refrigerants pose a hazard in their gaseous form, and there are many cases of individuals being overcome by them. In air, the refrigerants are "heavy" and will collect in low places by displacing air - and the oxygen in it. Anyone moving through a space where refrigerants have "taken over" will quickly approach unconsciousness. It would be easy to pass out, and then, if no one happens by in just moments, asphyxiation would follow in a very short time.
