One of my all time favorites. I remember they were .06 cents. Haven't seen them in a store for years, no Food Lions near here.
Out west we called them Fifty-Fifty Bars, which I believe was a brand name. If they came in flavors other than orange I never saw one, but it didn't matter because orange was my favorite. The ice-cream truck which rolled through our neighborhood sold them for a dime.
I remember dream sicles
Not a favorite but glad they had them in stock for all who like them
We would go to food lion while visiting my wife's relatives in Georgia none around us Food lion that is
I think I have a bunch of food lion NASCAR collector cards some where Around here. I am sure there priceless now. LOL
Food Lion about 3 mile away
Yep @mark christian 50-50 bars is what I remember from the west coast also, they did at least in Ventura county have a raspberry version on the Ice cream trucks as a kid and I liked em both!
Another delicious ice cream novelty.
But sadly Choco Tacos are going away. Unilever is discontinuing this yummy.
I would have loved to have tried the raspberry. Heck, I'd love to see an ice cream truck again. Do they still exist?
Yea, one comes around about once a week in our little town but any ice cream off them is now $10 bucks, yes, I said ten dollars.🤐
i make an orange float that taste a lot like a dreamsicle. vanilla ice cream with orange soda poured over it. have to use good ingredients to make it taste right.
$10? OUCH!
Those dreamsicle's were always known as orange Creamsicles around here in northern lower Michigan. Still available in multipack boxes in most stores as well.
I haven't had one in years but I may have just gotten a craving!!😁
More than you ever wanted to know about the the treat being discussed😀:
this was the best reference of the search, although this one doesn't mention that it was also known as a 50-50 bar...
Read an article yesterday about ice cream trucks disappearing because of increased prices and fuel costs........oh well.
as a kid they might as well not existed they would come by our area and not once did I get to buy anything and come to think on it the entire neighborhood I never seen more than one or two kids get any thing offf one of the trucks
when we would hear them coming playing music of course it did not mean a thing to us kids 😪
mom would say I can buy a whole box at the store for what one ice cream cost off the truck but that box we always counted and waited on 🤨 well it was like the no give away on here LOL
Svedka vodka flavor (looks gone) Orange creamsicle mixed with good orange juice with some type orange sherbert bar or Dreamsicle dropped in is about as good as it gets. A couple years back I was into them and have the sticks, neatly saved, in a pull out drawer in an organizer as proof. come in handy.
