There is nothing inherently bad about chewing on ice. Chewing on crushed ice is preferable to cubes because chewing cubes could cause cracks in tooth enamel. If you are craving ice to chew on it may be a sign of anemia which could indicate an iron deficiency.

What type of commercial ice machines make the fluffy crushed ice?
There are different machines. For "sno-cones," ice is crushed into tiny pieces from ice cubes. For "shave ice" or what they call "sno-balls" in New Orleans, a different machine is used that literally uses steel blades to shave thin layers from a large, solid block of ice that it is inserted in the machine. By shaving off thin layers, a lot of air is held between the layers, creating a substance very much like snow, rather than slushed ice. http://www.hawaiianshavedice.com/shavicemac.html
