SURE, BUT THE COCA-COLA FLAVORED ONES WERE NASTY: 7-Eleven's Slurpee turns 40 today.

When I was growing up and going to summer day camp, it was always a huge deal that, on the last day of camp, the buses would all stop at 7-Eleven and the bus counselors would pick up Slurpees for everyone, like it was the most magical forbidden treat ever. (Like it would've been impossible to just ask our parents to take us there to get them.)

These days, it's frappuccinos for me -- and the fact that they're higher in calories (if you get the whipped cream) than Slurpees (which are fat-free) and about the same in carbs . . . um, forget that I told you that, okay?
