ha. So you’re not a strawberries & cream person? Guess you didn’t like creamsicles (Dreamsicles) either
Ha! We had a small station like that just outside of town going to the lake. Stepped inside and there was a small shelf of basic fishing supplies and a tank of minnows. Was our go-to bait store.
I had a grandfather who was a pharmacist and owned a drug store. He had a soda fountain. He died before I was born, but the stories of all of this stuff being made there are legendary.
Check the high score...
We have an ice cream/candy shop in town that looks like that. Best ice cream and candy around. Still going gangbusters since around the 1950’s I think. They recently expanded and opened up another shop in the newer part of town. They got creative though and expanded their candy into all the drug stores here. They have their own end cap in all of them. It’s the candy Kevin McCarthy recently gave to someone on the floor of the House of Reps.

Ah, sorry. I was thinking YooHoo syrup not Yoo Hoo drink.
I never cared for YooHoo drinks. Tasted like chocolate water or chocolate skim milk to me.
Wonderful to know our once great country and culture hasn’t been totally destroyed by the left. At least not yet anyway.
That’s the thing. They are so refreshing! I learned of them in NYC east village in the early eighties as a newbie from Ohio.
I had them at a place called Kiev and a deli with an Optima cigar sign. Also Veselka. Delicious!
Cool.
That plus a brand of cream soda that goes best with it (trial & error).
Again, mostly Yoo Hoo, less cream soda.
If you want a great candy order their peanut butter chews. Addictive! I’m afraid to open a box because I keep going back til they’re gone. Lol
Any relation?

Well, interesting, I do like Creamsicles.
It’s really syrup I’m talking about, mixed with milk vs soda.
Maybe it’s because the fruit flavors were artificial.
“No soda for you!”

We used to drink a “chocolate soldier” in a bottle shaped like a soldier. Similar to Yahoo.
Ya can’t talk me into that one.
