I love these kind of teasers! I don't get #3 though. Can you explain?

OOHHH!!!! I GET IT !!! It is answer 1 and answer 2!!!
Exactly. If the puzzle were:
1. SHAVED ___ SKATE
2. ORANGE ___ POP
3. 1 ___ 2,
then 1 would be ICE, and 2 would be SODA.
The answer to 1 and the answer to 2 make another puzzle. So 1 ___ 2 is the same as ICE ___ SODA, where the answer is CREAM.

I'm glad I read the comments before the answer - and before I voted. I think more people would vote high if you clarify the instructions a little. They do make sense, but ...
Anyway, thanks! I'd quite like to try to write one or two of these; they look interesting ... any objections, Q?

Yes, it certainly needs clarifying! Once you know the idea, it's a tad easier.
