While there were some things …

My favorite kind of candy bar has to be the Three Musketeers bar. There really isn’t anything like it. Well, other than the Milky Way, which for some reason isn’t as good for me (though it’s still very good). If you like milk chocolate and haven’t …

RC Cola, for me, takes the middle spot between Coke, the expensive brand name, and Sam’s Cola, the cheap Walmart alternative. RC Cola has a very distinctive “cola” taste, different from Coke and not so mild as Sam’s. The price falls right in between the two as well: A …

Popsicles are a stable of every child’s life. I grew up with them, in various varieties. My favorite, though, was definitely the Popsicle Fudgsicle Ice Cream Bar. How can you beat chocolate ice cream? For a kid like me, you couldn’t.
