I understand that some of you may not recognize this brand ... but to those of us who used to go to fire company carnivals and pay a dime to toss rings into crates of soda in hopes that we'd win the red cream flavored 32oz bottle like the one in this image, the news that the Allentown company closed abruptly two weeks ago is hard to hear.
[By the way, you could then go to the booth next to it and toss dimes at assorted abandoned mix-matched glasses and dishware and score something in which you could drink it right away!]
A treat from my youth that proved truth in advertising, you will be missed.
BUT WAIT ... MAYBE A SALE?:
