This cherished frozen novelty consists of chocolate malt ice cream between two graham crackers, dipped in chocolate, and the name comes from the unique topping a dusting of crushed almonds that resembles sand. Wow, that sounds pretty darn familiar. From the aforementioned review: In days of old, the attendant would remove from the freezer a graham cracker ice cream sandwich, dip it in chocolate and, before the coating could solidify, dredge it through a tray of nuts ground into a powdery texture, resembling sand, and hand it to you protected by a sheet of wax tissue. No need to further rip the successor Sandae (see first review . Neither the Whiting 's website nor the 'net has any info on that product or its debut date. The firm mentions in passing the OG 's revival as early as 2020, when it sought trademarks for a cellophane packaged authentic Sandae and its name, registered in 2021.Created in 1935 arguably the equal of the storied It 's It from San Francisco 's late Playland Sandae and its Boardwalk owner concessionaire were acquired in 1953 to found Whiting 's, which decades later cast the confection to the sea gulls. What better time than now to bury that blunder, regain elderly purists, and allure all those with a sweet tooth to enjoy frozen bliss?

I've been going to the Boardwalk all my life. The Boardwalk food has changed and expanded so much over the past 40 years, but it hasn't always been for the better. I love that the Beyond Burger is now an option at one concession stand, and the veggie corn dog is available at another, but a few more vegetarian options would be appreciated. The funnel cakes are still awesome, the sodas are still refreshing, and the French fries are still tasty. The addition of a variety of ethnic foods is really great, but the pizza can use an upgrade to a better crust. The popcorn chicken offered at the concession stand in the casino arcade is terrible. They are more like chicken nuggets and very bad ones at that. The chicken strips are pretty tasty and crispy but better dipping sauce would be great. The Icee variety is a really cool idea and who doesn't love one on a hot day? The churros are crispy and just about perfect. Everything is so very expensive, though. Overhead is high, and I'm sure recuperating from the pandemic is tough, but offering a few real deals would be great for us guests.
On such a hot day, nothing beats the heat than a nice ice cream cone from whitings. Never disappointed.
Such a great and fun way to celebrate my parents 65 wedding anniversary with a Sandee from Santa Cruz fun foods-Whitings foods!! Everyone loved them, picked up at warriors stadium , which was easy and the BEST customer service!!! You can 't go wrong with a treat from Santa Cruz fun foods.. Will definitely do it again!!
I can be a healthy eater but once in awhile I just cannot help myself by indulging in pure junk food, no matter how bad it is for me. The more sugar, the better. Love those cotton candy things. 500% sugar in each one. And who gives a hoot. Soo damn tasty and delicious. And I don't care but no one makes a better corn dog than those kids down at the boardwalk. They like on the corn stuff on the outside to make it extra thick and super delicious. P look ease hold me back! I wanna go back for more!!!!!
