It's called a '66! i was close, check it out... Is that off Albany Road? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone had one and are they worth it over the traditional cone?

Merzbow Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 Excuse me for ruining the thread with modern foreign muck but I've been enjoying these Korean Calippo like ice lollies the past couple of years, the purple grape flavour is lovely. I finally had the "Sport" flavour earlier, it's like that ramune drink and pretty decent, still never seen the coffee ones anywhere tho.

Paid Members Carbomb Posted August 9, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted August 9, 2020 I would hazard a guess that the purple grape one tastes like Grape Fanta or KA Black Grape? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Yeah it's got that very distinct grape flavour that tastes nothing like actual grapes, I like it but it's an odd one you didn't really get here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deathrey Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 You know some things you just have over exposure to as a kid as your mum bought them constantly and then as an adult you can't stand the sight of them? I feel that way about Mini Milks, I've had a lifetime worth. I feel the same way about Ribena, can't stand the stuff as it's all my mum used to buy and we would have it constantly.

cobra_gordo Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Went for a walk with the family at the weekend and stopped at the ice cream van on the way back. I had my favourite, a cider refresher (£1.30). Kids all had variations on knickerbocker glorys, I always remember the KBG being the top shelf item when I was a kid and I never had one because they were normally £1.50-£2 and you'd get a cider refresher, some bubblys and a can of pop for that money and still have change. Three bloody quid these days. My mum nearly went for an ice cream oyster as it was the first time she said she'd seen one in years but bottled it and went 99 with a flake (two quid).

Rey_Piste Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 (edited) The BA Baracus Ice Lolly was my go to as a kid, either that or a Big Feast. I am disappointed that they got rid of the Big Feast and normal Feasts seem to have gotten smaller over the years. I seem to be in the minority that likes mint choc chip icecream. So a mint Feast or Cornetto is what I will get now. Edited August 12, 2020 by Rey_Piste Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
