Remember these juice drinks in little plastic barrels? My Gramma used to watch us most days and she always had these for us. If I drank one now I would probably be sick, but I LOVED them!

I hated those! I still always wanted to get them because I thought they looked cool.

@Leialou: I hated them too! I always wanted them to taste more like juice and less like corn syrup, I think.
I was also the lone child that hated Otter Pops. I do remember being ridiculously jealous of a family that had a *bucket* of peanut butter, though. Ha!

Yes, those were sold for super cheap at the corner store and also made an appearance at family reunions.

@anbanan15: Uhh I am going to go out on a limb and say there is 0% juice in there
@artbee: You weren't missing anything. I can taste them right now and they were sickly sweet.
@sorrycharlie: Oh I don't know the name of them, you might be right!

I've never had one but yesterday at the beach I saw a mom feeding one like a bottle to her kid that was approx 1 yr old. I was horrified. It was much smaller than the one in the pic though.

They totally came to mind during the GD test! We used to get them at the corner store after school. Didn't you have to scratch the lid off??

Yes I do. I am pretty sure I have residual brain-damage from the food coloring and sugar. I don't remember if I actually liked them. I was expecting to see a picture of a Mondo whatever the heck the other part of the name was: http://www.google.com/search?client=tablet-android-asus&hl=en&v=141278776&biw=1280&bih=800&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=IICrUZupI4beyAHgiIHoBg&q=mondo+drink&oq=mondo+drink&gs_l=img.3..0j0i24l4.36478.38739.0.39281.11.9.0.0.0.0.436.1236.0j1j1j1j1.4.0...0.0...1c.1.15.img.g2ASZP_XOws those were awesome. I gave a lecture to Ellie on blue food coloring when she was about five months old using that as an example. Yes, strange, I know.

I thought those looked so cool growing up, but was never allowed to drink them. Probably for good reason!
