My Brooklyn-born husband insists that true egg creams *must* be made with
Fox's U-bet. Of course, he's also the one who insists that a real bagel
simply cannot happen outside of Brooklyn, unless you were to go to
Brooklyn first and bring back several gallons of water with which to make
said bagel.

Almost on the subject--he was wondering aloud about it, and I figured I'd
ask--is it just his imagination or is Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray sweeter than it
used to be?
