Has anyone seen or had this dessert before? or is it a type of candy or just a flavor like chocolate, vanilla, etc...

It is a sparkling chocolate soda made with 3 readily available ingredients. Milk, chocolate syrup, and sparkling water. It is curiously refreshing. Paradoxically, it contains no egg or cream. That's a good thing.

Lactose ain't good for a lot of "ethnic" type people. Asians have a lot of drinks that are probiotics. The easiest thing to do is to have a Yakult. Do black folks have probiotic products for them? Beats me.

Dairy can be consumed in very small amounts too, you know. The calcium is still necessary.

From posted descriptions above, I’m guessing carbonated chocolate milk.
That can’t be it.

My secret drink is milk and Pepsi mixed together. It's smooth and refreshing. Don't mix up too much because you have to drink it in a couple of minutes or so because the drink curdles into something pretty nasty. I call it a "time bomb."

Try the Pepsi with cream instead. Just a thought. Wait! You’re lactose
intolerant. Scratch that.

Almond-based cream. Use Pepsi / Coke concentrate instead of diluted with

Half white wine and half diet coke? I think I'll try that right away. Hey, I've always liked Hawai'ians anyway. I was there back in the early 2000s. I remember during Christmas with two other people, I visited that large buffet in Waikiki - Tokai, I think it was called.

I was meaning to try that place for years but never did. It sounded pretty good. I think it closed down several years ago. It was called "Todai" although I suppose that hardly matters now.

I like the 100 Sails Restaurant in the Waikiki Prince Hotel. OTOH, who knows if it will survive all this? My guess is that about a third of the restaurants on this rock will be gone for good.

No one can keep an invincible tummy forever, but whenever I have stomach problems, I always run to a bowl of wheaties with flaxseed, etc...
Anywho, I didn't care alot for the wine/diet coke combo. I still like those rum and cokes though!

can you eat that doesn't bother you?
tomatoes and pasta are a staple food here and have
been my whole life.
i like it best when the pasta is still firm and
it is just made fresh so there is still some tomato
juice. a few dabs of butter melted on top. nothing
else needed. simple and good food. :)
until we run out of home grown tomatoes. :(

I don't have a problem with pasta and tomato sauce. But bruce2 said it
gives you energy the next day and I wondered how that worked.

for me energy storage is fat. :) and i have a
bit too much of it still but i'm about to go walk
behind a mower for a few hours so i should be able
to burn off a few ounces more.

Simple sugars give you an immediate energy fix but burn

out very quickly. Complex carbs will give you energy
for the next morning. Like pasta and potatoes.
Many serious runners will eat some complex carbs the
night before a morning race. Just don't eat too much.

First thing for energy each day is burning off

the carbohydrates that you've eaten.
Once you burn those, your body switches to converting
stored fat into carbs. That's harder to do so you
will feel sluggish.
Marathon runners often "hit the wall" at about
mile 20 with 6 more to go. That's when carbs are
depleted and the body switches to burning fat.
It makes it very hard to continue.

Basically, food gives us energy. But we already knew that.

I was just repeating stuff that I'd heard elsewhere and thought was true, imo.

Or just find a scenic place to jog.

up with that keep me busy enough on the days it isn't
raining or when i don't have to mow. i'd actually like
it much more if the bits of lawn that are left are gone
and turned into gardens instead. much more useful to
have flowers or veggies/fruits growing.

Too many gardens are scary because of snakes, bee swarms, poison ivy, etc...
I remember I was hit with about 20 or 25 hornets or wasps. And that was because I was close enough to the house to run inside and shut the door quick enough to leave the rest of the swarm outside. I was hurting for a whole day or so.
