you can have all your fancy magnums and new looki cornetos and all that mars ice cream rubbish...but you can't beat the good old ice burger or brunch...or a plain and simple 99, without all this toppings and flavours stuff..
its time to get back to basics with ols skool ice cream
i must say sorry for that, here at work they all agree....we have also added the tubs of ice cream with the little wodden spoon and the classic, loop the loop and wait for it................wibbley wobbley wonder, oh yeah !!! :cool:
Anyone what the original Choc Ice was as seems like a lot of versions....?Quote:

it was pink foot on a stick - bit wierd
feasts as well
choc ices were the ultimate luxury in summer but each year the chocalate content became less and less and was than replaced by some artificial spray on thin substitute "i cant believe its not chocolate"

Funny foot, but it used to be all the one colour - none of these swirls and chocolate big toe...Quote:

Those 10p Sparkles were the job if you were broke like me.
Golly Bars they were the biz
the humble old fashioned wafer takes some beating.the shopkeeper would cut one off the block depending on what size you wanted.you were made up if there was raspberry or strawberry sauce in the ice cream
ice cream= mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
icebergers for me, choc ice's when i was flush.
99 with 2 flakes and raspberry sauce.mmmmmmmmmm.
followed by ice cold can of coke.brain freeze.excellent behaviour :D
Twisters and Fat Frogs for me. Hard to beat on a roastin summer's day. Quality stuff hi.
I went thru a phase of eating those loop the loop multipacks (not at once) last year.
Seconded. The main reason I'd look forward to six weeks in Ireland every summer wasn't seeing the family, it was the good old Iceberger. Loved them.Quote:

then cornettos and magnums came out and ruined it all. over-priced, over-hyped, over fancy.
