Drinking Bug Juice in Grandma's Bug

For those grandparents who need yet another thing to spoil their little ones, Bug Juice, available at any gas station near soft drinks, is the new drink of choice for toddlers.

It probably would have more nutritional value if it were made from bugs, but it is a fruity, sugar drink which you can select according to the color dye which matches your grandchild's clothing.

Older ones like Tommy do not spill, so the whole matching thing does not come in to play there.

All three of my grandchildren put their order in by color preference every time I stop at a service station. There are red, as shown in the picture, purple, green, orange, blue and even pink drinks available. And given the fact that Anna has a red one here is proof enough that pink was not available that day.

On unlucky days, only few colors remain at those stations.

Personally, I don't ever spoil my three grandchildren. Given the whole situation about the cost of fuel, I enjoy giving those poor people involved in big oil as much business as possible right now.
