    Absolutely, Jones. Best I've ever had.

    I'd crack one open but Guinness has the stage tonight.:D

    Dr. Browns Cream Soda in the bottle. Add a brisket on rye with mustard and a kosher sour.......it just doesn't get much better.

    BTW, you can get it in a lot of places other than NYC.

    Blech! Only tried it once & hated it!

    Maybe I should try some of this recommended stuff again?

    Oh man, I don't get to have cream soda very often, but it is certainly a treat!

    So far, I've never heard of any of these brands. I've just had the typical Stewart's, IBC, etc.

    as an aside: when purchasing jones cream soda make sure it says 'pure cane' on the bottle. the taste is much different.

    Jone's is fantastic, however, it can be a little too sweet for me at times.

    I LOVE good old fashioned A&W Cream Soda. YUM!

    My brothers and I used to get $1 allowances as kids and we would go to the Giant Eagle and all buy a six pack of GE brand Cream Soda for the week. Too bad it only lasted 2 days tops, so we were out for another 5. :(

    The day I can walk into a store down here in Jersey and get a chocolate egg cream, life will be okay. Or a vanilla one. Or an old-fashioned.

    Dr. Brown is awesome stuff.

    Truth be told, I am a cream sode fanatic. I have had all brands listed and all are equally yummy!!!! I tend to go for IBC because it is readily available. Safeway had 2 six packs for 3 bucks last week, so I bought 4 packs of cream soda and 2 of their black cherry. I'm already down to the last six pack of each!!!!!!!!!!!

    George, you and I are going to pay a visit to the F&M Deli! They make egg creams as good as any I ever had in New York City and they are right here on Church Street in Mt. Laurel!

    Also, the reuben is spectacular and their Monte Cristo is to die for! It's the sammich to end all sammiches!

    Oh yeah, they got Doc Brown's stuff too! Including Cel-Rey Water. If you like that kinda thing. Cel-Rey water reminds me of grass clippings, not my favorite at all.

    You can't even pick this one up! You gotta eat it with a knife and fork! They use egg dipped and fried bread with the best cold cuts around then stack the sammich and put a slice of pineapple on top and then throw it in the oven until the pineapple caramelizes and the cheese is ooozing out of everywhere! Then they dust it with powdered sugar and give you raspberry jam on the side!

    Yeah, makes me hungry just thinking about it!

    Their corned beef just melts in your mouth! They make such wonderful sammiches of all kinds there and everytime I walk in, it smells like my grandmother's kitchen! They even make the Kapusta Perogis just as good as she did! A pile of fried onions on the side with some sour cream...man! that's good eatin'! (Oh, kapusta is cabbage or sauerkraut). If only I could get them to get the kielbasa from the Polish-American Deli in Runnemeade, that'd be a lunch to wash down with a pint of Yuengling!
