We LIVED on Kool Aid as kids...we were not allowed soft drinks. Occasionally Mom would drop a can of frozen orange juice in it or we would do the ice cube tray thingeys. Or "push-ups" from the ice cream man. Then came the ICEE....and God was in his heaven and all was right with the world. And Isa, I'm with your Mom...I LOVE banana fudgesicles.

Nutty buddies. My brother would sometimes eat the entire box in one sitting (save for the lone cone he tossed my way).

During Summers when I was a kid frozen cups kept us cool. A few of the neighborhood kids (and their parents) sold them out of their houses. The really good ones had fruit cocktail down at the bottom. I remember them being a quarter I think, and they were refreshing & goooooooood!

This is funny. I was trying to jog my memory about the name of the pops, and found a webpage where the authors were making a comparison of Fla-Vor-Ice and Otter Pops. The Otter Pops were a third smaller and 25% fewer in number in the package than the Fla-Vor-Ice, but they both cost the same. Further inspection of the "nutritional information" showed that, per gram, they had the same breakdown. Even further, the ingredient list on each was beyond suspiciously similar-- it was identical. Finally, they looked more closely, and discovered both pops are made by the same company. :rolleyes:

That IS funny. But the colors are different.
