How about a prune juice smoothie ? The last time I drank a chocolate ice cream soda was probably about 1962. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you I do like prune juice but always thought it should stand by itself. I’ll stick with my chocolate ice cream soda…1 once of half and half and 1 once chocolate syrup and 1/2 teaspoon of instant coffee stir until mixed and top off with your favorite seltzer. I prefer chilled black cherry with a small scoop of ice cream…quite refreshing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shipgeeks Posted February 1, 2023 #6 Share Posted February 1, 2023 For me, fresh-squeezed orange juice. Prune would be near the top of my not-favorite foods. Many years ago I was a camp counselor. Our rule at meals was that everyone would eat at least a bit of everything served. For a long day trip we were given paper bags with "hiker's lunch" items. At our lunch stop I discovered that the bags contained prunes as well as cheese and crackers. My efforts at hiding my non-consumption of prunes was, of course, noticed by the kids, and I had to eat my prunes in front of them. I haven't eaten prunes since.

I too was a camp counselor many years ago and found myself eating foods that I would not normally eat.Aside from that working in the camp was a wonderful experience.My group was 12 and 13 year old boys. Several years ago I was on a cruise and saw a guy who resembled a kid who was in my camp group.I approached and inquired if he was Joel . Indeed ,he was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I had my heart attack the doctors were wondering how my potassium had gone off the chart. I had just finished eating a bunch of dried apricots…lol. Now back on topic…I love a virgin Pina Colada, root beer, fresh orange juice, ice tea with lemonade, pineapple juice, apricot juice, peach juice mango juice and fruit punch. Lately I have been drinking real Coca Cola which I haven’t had in more than 50 years…go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
