I remember "Fizzies", sure do! The root beer flavor was (IMHO) the BEST. :)
Now here's one for you: do you remember an instant milk shake mix called "Great Shakes"? A little triangular shaped envelope with malted milk and chocolate flavoring, it came with it's own shaker, you add a cup of milk, pop the lid on, shake-shake-shake, and presto-change-o, you had a really good (to me) milk shake! :)
MMMMMMMMMM!
YUP! I remember!
Ugh! TaB was horrible from the get-go - remember it in my middle school years.
Now Fresca...
BTW, remember Shake-a-Puddin'? I could never get the damn stuff to work...
