Yeah, there have been notices taped to the inside of the freezer section down here for months regarding Blue Bell stopping production. Glad to see the nightmare is finally over!

Problem here is none of the stores really sell much of a choice. Article the other day said they account for 80% of the ice cream sales minus the store brands which apparently don't use sugar. Love blue bell. Banana pudding flavor being my favorite.

That's good shit right here.

Are you Dutch? I've only ever met Dutchies who like Windmill cookies. They're pretty awesome.
Nope, they were just cheap back in the day....and are like $5 for a tiny little box now. *grumble* They are still awesome though, I get them when I see em on sale. More people need to know of their greatness.

Man, you guys brought your lunch to school? That's rich right there. When the school sells you your lunch for $0.25, you eat that shit. Bringing your own was too expensive
I never went to a school with a lunch program. Now I understand that the schools around here serve both lunch and breakfast but there was none of that in my day. Parents actually had to feed their children.

They stopped making ice cream? I knew they had done some recall or something, but I didn't know they fully stopped production. About a month ago my girlfriend's dad (an ice-truck delivery driver) got a crate full of Blue Bell chocolate chip ice cream sandwiches as a gift from one of the stores he delivers to, and he gave a ton of them to me, which I promptly devoured.
Your girlfriend's dad is trying to kill you, loading you up with listeria bars. Don't turn your back on that dude in the future...

I had a straight up Big Mac today. It has been ages, and I actually enjoyed it. Sometimes a return to basics is good.
I typically don't ever eat mcdonalds, just because. But maybe once a year I'll go and just gorge on the stuff.. it makes you feel so good. I used to eat it everyday and it made me feel like my body was trying to escape my skin for feeding it that stuff, so I stopped and started classing it up at wendys.

You guys are making me all nostalgic about my younger, super poor days.

Otter pops
Ecto Coolers
Tang
Flavor Barrels
Kool Aid ice cube pops
Shit on a shingle (<--- This is how you know you were really poor)

I tried some freezer pop the other day that was pina colada, it was incredible.

Whatever, I still make this.

How do you guys make it though because I have friends that make it and all it is is what I call chipped beef (they used sliced dried beef). I use hamburger in mine.

My mom made hamburger, beef gravy over rice/mashed potatoes. She called it shit on a shingle but i don't think that's what it is. I still make it though, it's awesome.

I have heard of it as ground beef, cream of mushroom soup, and canned peas dumped over toast but I'm sure there are a lot of variations. I grew up eating a lot of casseroles that were ground beef + cream of mushroom soup + ingredients. You have to admit it's pretty tasty.

We used hamburger but my step dads family made their SOS with ham and pea's. It was weird but you get used to it.

I think it was dried beef used in SOS in the military for many years because it wouldn't spoil like fresh meat. Then when guys came home they all made their own versions.

Damn I actually liked SOS (that's what my mom called it, my parents are church folk) growing up. Hamburger and diced onions in white gravy is how she made it.

Just had the Biscuits and Gravy Lays. Meh. The one thing they did well is include sage in the flavouring. The best sausage gravy uses sage cured sausage. I'd give them a 5/10, and will buy them again because my kids like them a lot.

I cannot find the Biscuits and Gravy stuff anywhere. Everything is just overflowing Greek Town which I did not care for.
