I've cream
Attachment 28242
Anyone else grow up in the hood where they had actual soft serve trucks driving around?
It was either the coconut pineapple or the strawberry cheese cake.
They were both good.
I didn't grow up in the hood with soft serve, but we had 10 cent scoops of Thrifty ice cream!!!
15 cents one scoop, 30 cents two scoop, 45 cents three scoops......we had a Thrifty by our junior high school. I used to throw a single scoop to the girls and then take them behind the building and make out. Two scoops got you a stink finger.
You're so gross! It's Ice Cream! Keep it clean buddy ;)Quote:

I grew up in the Norwalk Hood. The ice cream trucks that served soft serve in our hood were Dipsy Doodle Ice Cream.Quote:

When Thrifties 1st opened up in our neighborhood in 1967 there scoops were 5 cents single, 10 cents double and 15 cents for the triple. Those were the hood prices. In my teen years I had a girl friend that worked at Thrifties in the ice cream dept. (hand dip) she hated that job...Quote:

Kinda funny... my ex gf and next door neighbor (how we met) is a little older than I and she worked at the movie theater in Azusa that my friends and I would sneak into. Small world. She grew up in West Covina.
Those ice cream trucks were the shit. Nothing like sitting on the curb with a banana split on a summer afternoon! My neighbor had full on metal and wood shop at his house and I was the kid with all the skateboard handrails and boxes, so all the kids that skateboarded hung out at my house so the ice cream truck always knew to come by my street lol.

Most of the American made car dealers across the country are gone now. Honda, Kia and Hyundai rule now. And that's pretty fucking sad.Quote:
