One of our houses was line-of-sight to the giant Isaly plant in the Oakland neighbourhood. Didn’t know Isaly’s was gone until we went back to visit it a few years ago. You can still get the chipped ham.

Heh. I was going to ask if you remembered the “chip-chop” ham sandwiches. I was a big fan of their hot chicken.

The ice cream was good, but I remember the sherbets the most. It was real strong in fruit flavor and that took away from it being too sweet. The orange was like biting into acid it was so dang tangy. Early childhood drugs!
