In Miss., Sunrise Root Beer. (My friends and I used to say, "Drink that stuff and you'll never see another sunrise!")

Not to mention Big Shot Cola, Chocolate Soldier, and Zetz and Rex root beers.

Anybody eat "Nabs?" I think that's another Southernism.

Moon Pie and RC. The only thing better is Elgin Hot Sausage, Moon Pie and a Big Red. Mmmm.

Yoohoo kicks a$$!

Bummer, I'll have to see if you can buy Big Red on the 'net. I've been able to get my hands on lots of regional specialties that way. Gets a little expensive with the shipping, but it's cool to be able to try stuff like that.

One of the true New England beverage favorites is Moxie, but man is it nasty stuff!

That would be an RC COLA and MOON PIE!

Big Red is not much more than cream soda and red dye #5.

Anybody here ever hear of a soda called Cheerwine? I know it sounds kind of bizzare, but we used to drink it when I was growing up in NC.

YooHoo comes in another flavor? They'll stop at nothin' 'til we're all dead!!

Hey Dee8go! I managed a Boy Scout "Trading Post" (TP) back in the 60's that had about 20 cases of YooHoo. If one kid ordered a bottle of the stuff, he'd spit it out, scream for his money back and with WOM the way it was, no one would touch a bottle of the stuff for the rest of the week.

If I remembered correctly, the stuff didn't need refrigeration, but I still kept about a 12-pack in the cooler, just in case.

Anyways, it got into the month of August, this crap wasn't selling at all and I was getting tired of inventorying the stuff for the 9th week, only 14 bottles gone. What to do?

I took a fairly large, flat rock, painted a 4" white circle on it, then a 1" red circle in the middle of the white spot. Stuck it in the oven, baked the paint, then when the rock cooled, dropped it in the fish pond next to the TP. Prize was: a quarter mostly/on the red spot, 1 Case of YooHoo - Quarter mostly/on/touching the white spot, 6-pack / smaller change mostly/on red spot, 6-pack / smaller change mostly/on/touching white spot, bottle of YooHoo.

During the Boy Scout Week of camping, once someone "won" whichever prize, word would get around that the YooHoo wasn't worth a yoohoo. Got rid of only 7-8 more bottles. However....

During "Cub Daze" (Camp full of ankle-biters, for only one-day, from nearby "councils"), the winners would load up on the stuff before their taste-buds would be able to react. Each day, for the next two weeks, my YooHoo inventory dwindled.

Final inventory left me counting a "broken case" of YooHoo.

Don't remember what we did with the rest of the stuff. But, I'll never forget that yellow 6-pack wrapper around those bottles.

And it's still around? God help us...


BTW, the wife has a Coke recipe...Chocolate Cokes.

Take HERSHEYS syrup, do a 4-count squirt into a glass, drop in four or five ice cubes and top it off with the Coke of your choice. Stired, not shaken. Original Coke is preferred, but I've seen people in central-Illinois use the cherry-flavored Coke instead.

Haven't seen anyone use the Diet-Coke route, but some might argue the calories are balanced out by the Chocolate/Diet-Coke mixing.

Go figure...

This NY'er found out about this from an ex - southern friend....

Salt on Watermellon
have I ever tried it.......NO




I know they also boil their string beans for like 2 hours, which I did try & since I am civilized & used to steamed veggies this seemed like a really dumb way to cook food.

moon pies suck

Shame on you, Don! How could you say such a thing?

Actually, I haven't had a Moon Pie 30 years, but I used to love 'em. Liked Yoohoo's, too. I don't know what that stuff was. It was not milk, though. I'm pretty sure of that.
