Took a walk tonight to the A&P tonight to return a cart that was deposited near our house (not the first time). Had a craving for some chocolate milk, so Hannah and I went down the coffee and tea aisle to pick up some Nesquik. First saw the 25% less sugar stuff and immediately diverted my gaze to see this:

Got home, cracked ‘er open and thought the mix looked crumblier than normal. But this was from a store that didn’t have pumpkin 2 days before Thanksgiving, so I figured maybe it was just old and settled. It wasn’t until I tasted it did I look at the container.

Ah crap.  I was crushed! So I figured a liitle DIY..

But it’s not the same, and the aftertaste is rather gross. It may just go in the garbage. Sigh.

Can’t replicate that high-fructose corn syrup taste!

Do you keep refilling your Domino sugar tub from a paper bag?

Yup. The 5-pounder.

Which is a drag, since the tub is only a 4-pounder, so there’s always leftover in the bag to store until you use some. Go figure.

David, your life stories are so entertaining! 🙂

This is the formula you give your kids when you want to discourage them from drinking chocolate milk.
