[Food] Chocolate Milk!!

Why is Chocolate milk so hard to find here in NYC.

Like real CHOCOLATE milk not Nesquick, not Yahoo, and NOT Fat free. I want Great Chocolaty milk in a Half Gallon or Gallon form, It could be organic or regular.

..and I'm pretty sure Costco & BJ's has it

I'd search for Bohack's (but I'd be dating myself)

I remember Bohack's from when we'd come east to visit relatives in Ridgewood and Forest Hills when I was a wee lad.

They had the coolest Bubblegum machine ever...for a nickel!

That whole area block radius was 'the' after school hangout
Stark's Chicken too (but we digress)

Are you talking about the one in Forest Hills on 108th & 63rd Drive?

I thought so. I remember Stark's. Do you remember the name of the kosher takeout that was down 108th at 64th Road, next to The Center? We only knew it as Paula's.

hmmm...Moyna & Mishna's? No..that can't be it - that was 65th Ave & 108th. 65tth Ave had a few...

You mean by the Hallmark Center? On 108th or on 64th..it's ringing a bell..but unsure - maybe Tikvah's?

Chosen Garden was there too (Chinese Kosher) - but not older - been there about 14 years now, I think

Sorry for the hijack, Squirrel

..that happens here a lot

Also forgot to say earlier..if you know the brand you want - and ask your local market, usually they'll try to stock it for you if they can

The Center was like a Staples in its day. "Paula's" was a hole in the wall right next to it. She had awesome potato pancakes and brisket. My German grandmother was miffed because I said once they were even better than hers.

Shaloms? Called something else now.

There's another I know I got food from..but the name is escaping me. They had stuffed cabbage, brisket, latkes...

I'm calling my mother

That's on the other side of the street and the next block. Lemon Drop and Chai used to be a Daitch. I can't for the life of me think of what the Jewish place at that corner of 65th was...another deli takeout but also had sit-down. *Wait...I'm having a senior moment...now I can't remember if it was Stark's, or was Stark's up 108th, next to the aquarium store across from Bohack's? *

I was looking on Google Street View and can't believe how low-rent that shopping area has become. All those rollup gates!

The place that says Mazal is where it was.

Good Lord, The Center looks so ghetto.

lol! We did the same thing




I remember someone ahead of me in line at the Center winning a million dollar lottery...the Center closed for 4 days with signs all over their window. Guess the woman took care of them

Ah. The brain's having a little trouble thinking back 45-50 years.

There used to be a kids clothing store by the Key Food. I remember being taken there when my folks had to buy me some things because my suitcase didn't arrive at JFK with us. I even took my kids there a few times when they were tykes in the 70s. There was also a neat, old-fashioned German deli next to it that I also stopped in when I was in the neighborhood.

It could just be the demographics of where you are, or the stores you have. All of the chain stores I have ever shopped at around the country over the years carry it. Small mom-and-pop ones may not, or might only carry Nestle or Yahoo since they have limited space and only carry what they know will sell.

Whole chocolate milk is easily available in all stores around here, but, this is dairy country. The brands tend to be local or regional dairies, though.

Just a note... folks, "Yahoo" is an Internet Search Engine. "Yoo-hoo" is a chocolate beverage (not chocolate milk) that's been around since 1925. There's a big difference between the two.
