Guest Posted May 23, 2002 Report Share Posted May 23, 2002 The Trix rabbit subverts children. Aren't some of the cereal pieces red? And others are yellow, for the godless Chinese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 23, 2002 Report Share Posted May 23, 2002 And the plot thickens........According to Topher's Breakfast Cereal Character Guide, General Mills, who makes Trix cereal has a "marketing" agreement with none other than Nestle. Them rabbits is up to somethin'............... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarisin Posted May 24, 2002 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2002 [color:red]but a true-blue American kid reaches for the Hershey's syrup. color=red> On the East Coast when I was growing up it was Bosco and Cocoa Marsh (the latter for marshmallow not a swamp). You guys have convinced me to give this Milo junk another try tomorrow when I make my weekly visit to my favorite McD's. If I start projectile vomiting I hope one of you will be around to clean it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoiledCowboy Posted May 24, 2002 Report Share Posted May 24, 2002 Thanks PP, just wasn't at all sure on the origins of Marmite, and other axle greases, but in NZ, just like Vaginamite, sorry Vegemite, in Australia, Marmite is a national dish and the poor sods tend to think of the stuff as their own - it would have to have the highest per capita sales in the world there,surely. Well, all this talk of salty spreads has given me a thirst now, so it is off we go to a beer bar for relief. Vote 1, Vote Carousel ! Everyone's a winner, (nearly!), can you detect that a good-time was had there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 24, 2002 Report Share Posted May 24, 2002 Erythromycin will take care of that Vegemite. Check with a doctor for strengths and dosages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lusty Posted May 29, 2002 Report Share Posted May 29, 2002 I think it was developed in the Star of light as the Surowong road branch at the end of Patpong was the first to have it! Why can,t I get any strawberry milkshake in a Los Mc D,s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarisin Posted May 30, 2002 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2002 Rusty, I, too, miss the milkshakes at McD's. They simply went away several years ago replaced by the oh-so-popular sundaes - corn, taro, and pineapple flavors. BLECH! And, now we have these McFloat things. Anyone know where you can get a quality milkshake in Bangkok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 30, 2002 Report Share Posted May 30, 2002 "Anyone know where you can get a quality milkshake in Bangkok?" I think the Hard Rock Cafe has one on their menu. I haven't tried it, but their desert stuff is usually excellent. Swenson"s maybe? They do a good malt; might do shakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarisin Posted May 30, 2002 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2002 Yeah, you are right SS. The desserts in the Hard Rock are outstanding. I like that brownie with icecream and chocolate sauce. Mississippi Mud Pie? Never thought of Swenson's. Thanks. BTW, I was in McD's today and they were setting up a TV with the advertisement you will be able to watch the World Cup there. Kick back with a McFloat and have a ball. Also, they were putting up a huge screen outside the WTC with seating for 1,000 to view the World Cup.

Guest Posted May 31, 2002 Report Share Posted May 31, 2002 Dairy Queen has also recently come out with a DQ Float, but it is just as lousy as the one at McDonald's. My biggest complaint is that they fill the cup with ice before putting in the Coke and the ice cream. So you're left with this big wad of that pseudo ice cream, imbedded with crushed ice. Terrible. For good milkshakes, don't forget about Haagen-Dazs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
