Was Sunday Basket any good? I was too small when they existed to make a credible judgement. Just remember I was real upset when they closed, and even more upset when years after leaving the building and signage up, it was torn down to put a friggin bank.

Who still making ice block ?

Here's my recipe.Tweak to suit.
1 tin Nestle cream
3/4 tin Nestle condensed milk
1-2 tsp essence

Add whatever flavour you want to that, blend it in a blender until it is properly mixed.Pour into whichever ice tray/styro cups/bowl/popsicle set/muffler bearing you have available.Put in freezer.Eat when frozen.
My flavour picks:
peanut butter
Ginger and cardamom for a barfi kind of taste
Oreo
Zaboca and white chocolate.

Sky is the limit.You can even let a beer get flat and use that as well.You don't need much.

For me, instant nostalgia food:

0) Pastelle.

1) Arepas, Empanadas (lots of childhood in Caracas (when it was nice), Margarita, etc) (con queso, con carne!)

2) Plain-ole mango chow, in a bag with sauce, or a few slices on paper for 25¢ (not the fancy things you see nowadays.. like pineapple chow)

3) Green plum (or governer plum!) chow, salt and bird pepper (!important). Note: NOT plum chow!, just green plums, salt and pepper.

4) Fruit cocktail ice box cake my granny used to make

5) Royal castle (specifically royal castle pepper)

6) My gran's khitree rice with stew chicken. Always sappy like this. I find most ppls in Trini make theirs dry for some reason.

Anybody remember the hamburger carts that used to sell the $5 burgers ?

They used to come out late at night.

Similar to White Castle burgers .

[Dizzy28]

1/2 litre returnable. Pepsi started it and eventually coke started using it too. Can't remember if it was sold at 50 cents but I do remember paying 75 cents with the empty which moved up to 1.50 over time.
