How about those drinking straws with chocolate or strawberry flavouring inside the straw. Stick straw in glass of milk and voila chocolate milk

Haha! Was going to bring it up, but figured that is was too recent.
Has anyone been able to find Crystal Gravy in the Edmonton area?

What about the wax tubes filled with some sort of sweet liquid. Bite off the end of the tube and chew the wax while drinking the mystery fluid. Mmmm!
I really miss the neighborhood bakery. Mom would stop in for several loafs of bread and buns and she always bought us kids a gooey cinnamon knot.

I'd nearly forgotten about when Coca-Cola pulled the incomprehensible move of changing their recipe, then there was the uproar from consumers which had them re-release 'Coca-Cola Classic' on the shelves alongside what was now labelled as Coca-Cola, or New Coke. Eventually the 'replacement' was killed off. I still wonder whether that was just a gargantuan marketing stunt or an ill-advised change by product development staff and management. Considering the size public backlash over that, and that there wasn't even an Internet for them to organize on it was quite the mobilization!

Used to buy a 10 oz Pepsi and a bag of chips and get .2 return on the bottle all for the initial payout of .25.....The items are still there but not for .25.
For the return your selection was, mojo's, jaw breakers, double bubble, black licorice babies ("N" babies), carmel cube, shoestring licorice.
Then we played outside all day until the street lights cam on.

The original recipe HP Sauce. The new recipe is not nearly as good.
