I remember as a kid buying the cartoon character bars off those trucks. Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers had one in the shape of Dale's head with a gum ball for the nose. I also bought the Mario Bros. ice cream bars.

When I was a child in the '70s, I always got the grape flavored ice pops for 10 cents at the ice cream truck. I loved them. Once in a while, I'd get the red, white and blue ice pops for 15 cents I never got ice cream, always ice pops.

Eskimo Pies were my favorite, as a kid. Of course, you had to eat them fast in the summer, or they'd fall off the stick!

We have the Mister Softee trucks that serve soft-serve cups, cones and shakes. I always went for vanilla cone w/ rainbow sprinkles and still do.

I never really went for the Good Humor items at the truck since you could buy those anywhere.

Mister Softee was Good Humor's competition ! I don't recall their trucks coming down our block/our hood though so we always got Good Humor !!

We didn't have an ice cream truck in my area growing up. The only way we could get treats like these was at school and that was limited to chocolate, strawberry and vanilla in either cups or ice cream sandwiches and my favorite, Hershey's scooter crunch bars in chocolate and strawberry.

I liked those red, white and blue popsicles too. They were colorful and refreshing, but I preferred the more fattening creamy ones better !!!

Along with the three I already posted , I also liked a Coconut cream bar from Good Humor, I can't find a pic of one on line , but it was like this but seemed bigger !

And I loved an ice cream sandwich too!!!

I was went for the ice cream sandwich or the drumsticks.

The only time you see me run, is when I see the ice cream truck.
