I woke up with a case of the head jingles. The head jingles does not mean there is something loose in my head , although the odds are very high. The head jingles means that I woke up with a tune stuck in my head, a jingle that clings to my mind like an incessant radio stream. Is this haunting ballad from a dream or a TV commercial? Where is it from? I may never know what induced the never ending anthem of the Klondike Bar into my mind. "What would you do-oo-oo for a Klondike Bar", " What would you do-oo-oo for a Klondike Bar", "What would you do-oo-oo for a Klondike Bar"! I decided to quell the song by researching the origin of the Klondike bar. The Klondike Bar was created in the early 1920's by the Isaly Dairy Company of Youngstown, Ohio and named after the Klondike river of Alaska. There where six original flavors in 1922 ,Vanilla, Strawberry, Chocolate, Grape, Maple, and Cherry. I prefer Vanilla because it is classic, but since the 1920's there has been a variety of Klondike flavor experimentation such as : Orange, Krunch Bars, Heath Bars, York peppermint patty, Neopolitan, Reese's peanut butter cup, Oreo, Cappuccino and varied more. So what would you do for a Klondike Bar? Personally I would drive into town to buy a whole box of Klondike bars and then proceed to eat them until I get the Klondike Bar ditty out of my head once and for all!
