Gracious! Foxon is OK....but doesn’t come close to Avery’s; Avery cream or birch beer is to die for.
I agree with your apizza list completely. There’s supposed to be a new pizza joint inn Clinton, that is getting a lot of good reviews. Since it’s about five hours from me, I doubt if I’ll ever get to try the new place.
Good apizza doesn’t exist in Vermont. LOL
Start making your own Texas Pizza Bread.
It’s not that Foxon Park is the best soda, it is just that the entertainment value of drinking with a not quite long enough straw out a tall, skinny 7 1/2 oz. bottle is part of the experience. (Of course, Sally’s carries Pepsi products, if I remember, but Modern and Pepe’s carry FP). Speaking of the Birch Beer, I brought some back to Illinois, and couldn’t get anyone to try it. Finally the sister of our neighbors tried it, and she cried, “Ugh! It tastes like Pepto-Bismol!” I had never thought of it that way, but it kinda does. Of course, I LIKE Pepto-Bismol.
If you are ever in Wallingford, CT, best grinders at Rosa’s Deli.
BTW, the nearby Phoenix soda place ALSO has Avery’s, Pop Shoppe and Cliquot Club, and a bunch of others from different parts of the country.
I had wondered whatever happened to Cott Soda (”It’s Cott to be good”). It turns out that they became a supplier for store brands (e.g. Wal-Mart). I stumbled upon their distribution center in Columbus, GA.
The soda I miss is Canada Dry Jamaica Cola, NOTHING goes better with a ham and cheese on a poppy seed hard roll than that.
