Mini Yoo-Hoo Chocolate Bars
Your favorite chocolate nostalgic drink, in chocolate bar form!
The term Yoo-hoo was first applied to a fruit drink called "Tru-milk", sold in the 1920's. They soon found a way to produce a kind of chocolate-milk drink that would not spoil in the summer heat as pure chocolate milk would. The name "Yoo-hoo" became associated with the chocolate-flavored drink as well.
In the 1940s, Thomas Giresi opened a bottling plant in Batesburg, South Carolina, for distribution of Yoo-hoo. In the 1960s, an advertising campaign tried to appeal to an older public for the drink, and featured Yogi Berra and his New York Yankees teammates. Berra, in a pin-striped business suit, drinks a bottle of Yoo-hoo, lifts it next to his cheek, and says with a smile, "It's Me-He for Yoo-Hoo!"
