re: Borden Eggnog

I bought some from Walmart in Brusly today, it definitely tasted off. It didn't taste as seasoned (spices). I just bought some at the same location a little over a month ago that tasted the same as I've been used to for decades. I'm a Kleinpeter milk fan but their egg nog is bland as hell. Borden always tasted like the egg nog my gramps used to make. When I was old enough to spike (alcohol), it tasted EXACTLY like his. That's when I realized he gave me spiked nog...lol
It's amazing how things sound when taken totally out of context! 39% at keeping someone Covid free. 88% effective at keeping a dumb-arse out the hospital. 91% effective at keeping fools out the grave! Speak truth, the WHOLE Truth.LINK
I was watching a marathon of the show and Googled it & BR, nothing. Did the same with LA and got over a dozen places, almost all in NOLA, one in Slidell (same dif) and one in Hammond. If you look at the places listed here; Sonic, Applebee's, etc. The reality is, we have good food, not great food. Sonic and Applebee's fall into the "edible" category not good. Good would be Parrain's, Chimes, Sammy's Ralph's, City Pork etc. Louie's has great hash browns but what else on their menu is that good? Fleur De Lis has outstanding Pizza, but the service is so bad I haven't been there in twenty years. With all the contributions good (mostly good) and bad we got from Katrina, not one great restaurant was one of them. Unless someone has a suggestion I haven't tried. Cleary anyone suggesting someplace like Sonic is automatically disqualified from this discussion. Po-boy Lloyd's has really good poboys, but nothing like the old Dooky's, Mahoney's or Parkway's Turkey poboys. Louie's hash browns and maybe hot Krispy Kremes are the only things I would drive from NOLA to eat. I must insist on "hot" Krispy Kremes. Hot out the fryer they're better than sex, cold its just another donut. I had 2 Aunts that would suggest food locations. One was medium build and most of her suggestions were cheap and "maybe" edible. The other was a heavyweight diabetic who lost a leg because she refused to eat plain foods. That's the one I would listen to about food and the one who would get the "hot" Krispy Kreme thing.
