Who says Texans have no culture?

yup. also learned to love big red and big peach in my time at baylor. although, what i wouldn't give for a good chicken fried steak.

Kosmo:

YES!! I LOVE MOXIE! I bring some back from Maine every time I go home to visit. It certainly is a required taste though…most people probably do not realize the popular use of the word to mean having spunk or energy was derived from the drink.

.. and Vernors will clear out your sinuses.

kosmette's pa kin swear by the stuff… the first time she brought me a can and i drank moxie it brought tears to my eyes. not something i would drink on regular basis but it's break from the norm.

i tried it, but it came with brown gravy. . .BROWN GRAVY!!! that's sacrilege and i couldn't bear to finish it.

the club used to have dominion root beer on tap. man, do i miss those days.

ibc is my favorite, but i do have fond childhood memories of the a&w drive in in ludington, mi.

now that i think about it, several meals on vacation to michigan consisted entirely of ice cream. there was the house of flavors (home of the pigs dinner: a 5 or 7 scoop banana split that came in a wooden trough), the tastee freeze for soft ice cream after the international invitational cross channel rock throw, and the whippy dip after the silver lake dune rides. hmmm…wonder why i'm fat?

i recommend inca cola, esp if you're eating chicken from el pollo rico.

and also blue sky, which is based in new mexico. its kinda pricey though.

they also have awesome banana milkshakes. b&e's is the best post-show diner stop on the way home in virginia.. although it's a bit far from my house, it's definitely worth it

I'd like some Tizer please….and I suppose Irn Bru for lulu so she'll come back to the board.

do you remember farrells… they were an ice cream chain that had a pig trough dish and a 15 scoop sundae. if i remember correctly they posted your name on the wall if you finished the pig trough by yourself.

being one of them yankees and new to chicken fried steak i had no idea that bob & edith's brown gravy was a sacrilege. admittly i liked it with the brown gravy :roll:

frank's diner in jessup has a chicken fried steak with white gravy that kosmette recalls as being good.
