Is everything really better with bacon???

Found in a candy shop, Swansboro NC.

I'm not tempted to try PB&J or sweet corn soda.

Nostalgia

Do you remember these?  You would get out the bottle, open the cap with the bottle opener in front.  There would be a place to put your empties nearby.

These crates look old, but I know that Cheerwine is still sold in the grocery stores in North Carolina.  It's a sickly sweet cherry soda drink.  Some people drink it, but it's also a favorite for barbeque sauce recipes.

Sugar sweet

Reading the side of the cup at Panera, I saw that a 20 oz of regular cola has 17.25 teaspoons of sugar.  Hm, well of course I had to see how much that really is.  There's the 20 oz cup (all the way to the top,) and there's 17.25 teaspoons of sugar.  So how many of us would just pour 1/3 cup of sugar in a glass and drink it down? But we do that everytime we order a medium cola...!
