- Bungalow_Bar abstract "Bungalow Bar was a brand of ice cream sold from trucks to consumers on the streets in the New York City boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens Staten Island and the Bronx, as well as in Yonkers and Nassau County, during the 1950s and 60s. Bungalow Bar trucks serviced the Bushwick section of Brooklyn during forties. Bungalow Bar trucks had a distinctive, quaint, and decidedly old-fashioned look: white, with rounded corners, and made to look like a small, mobile bungalow topped with a dark brown shingle roof. The founders of Bungalow Bar were Peter Adams, a Greek immigrant who left Greece just before the onset of WWII, and his cousins Chris & John Iconomakis. Peter Adams had three children; a son (George) and 2 daughters (Olga & Helen) whom are still alive today (October 2014). Chris & John's daughters also worked in the factory. To the best of their memory, they can remember the huge production building located in Richmond Hill, Queens. The one daughter worked both in the office and then learned how to operate the machines in the packing plant. Bungalow Bar's chief competitive rival was Good Humor, a national chain, whose trucks appeared larger, more angular, and more modern. Perhaps for this reason, Bungalow Bar suffered from a terrible - and undeserved - reputation among children, who believed their product inferior. Good Humor's ice cream on a stick sold for 10 cents, while Bungalow Bar's price was 5 cents. This reputation was expressed as a kind of chant or song and, passing from one child to another, quickly crossed neighborhood boundaries and age groups. The lyrics, as learned in Flatbush, Brooklyn in the late 1950s, were:Bungalow BarTastes like tarPut it in a jarAnd throw it farThere were many localized variations of this chant. One, during the same period went:Bungalow BarTastes like tarThe more you eatThe sicker you areAnd another, from Brooklyn:Bungalow BarTastes like tarTake a biteAnd spit it far".
