BEEP Heartburn in a glass fixed with a hearty supplement of vegetable oil… mmmmm
It is the king of hang-over drinks!
Anyone remember the batting type helmets they would give away with the “beep horn” built in?
You’d run around smacking each other on the head to make the noise.
Beep is a bitch to actually make in the dairy plant! One of the worst things I ever had to make. Screw it.
They still make that horrid stuff? I haven’t had that since I was 8 when they used to feed it to us in elementary school.
Mmmmm Beep 😀 I used to always get it in Jr. High because it was only 35 cents haha
Beep – tasted like a ripe peach stuck up a chimp’s large intestine for six months.
only problem with most donars, is that they have a retch factor, you wash it down with whatever, to see if it stays down. most are fucking gross looking shit, that i wouldn’t feed to a dog.
oh, and btw, beep was fucking gross too.
What the hell is beep?
it’s a peachy tasting pseudo fruit DRINK…kinda like sunny d i think they both have/had veg. oil in them…i have tasted both once and beep is better, but that is like winning a razzie
BEEP is awesome!! It will be sadly missed. 🙁

I would argue that Beep is not peachy, but more a cross between apple and orange….I HATE peach drinks but LOVE Beep!!
I grew up in Montreal and my grandmother used to send us a case in the mail. It was so much better when it was in the old mini-milk containers and we would freeze it and then eat it with a spoon!!! I got a lotta french kids hooked on that stuff!
well sweetie i am not a connoisseur of beep, it was the smell more than the taste. we drank tang…much better for you^^
mmm tang, I know what that is…
I want tang now…
i compare tang to pixi-sticks(sp) but with vodka…it was a nectar at me folk’s cocktail parties
Gatorade contains hydrogenated oil too. The healthiest is real fruit juice with no sugar added. Or water. Stick to the stuff that nature provides for us and avoid the man-made ‘drink’ products which are not pure juice.
BEEP has be come a nostalgic treat for Nova Scotians who grew up with the stuff. The proliferation of healthier choices in today’s market leading to decreased sales resulting in BEEP’s demise. It will be missed by many but not by all. I actually like BEEP. Bye bye BEEP:(
Life Sucks you are nothing but a WORLD CLASS FUCKING KNOB! I can see you not liking Beep, because your taste buds obviously work on the same level as your personality and charm, but how in fuck can you slag donairs too? Get the fuck out of Nova Scotia NOW! Goof! Is there a way to block someone on here? This is a great way to keep up with what’s going on back home, but there’s always one prick who has to fuck it up…
Hey man, don’t be hating on LS. People don’t all enjoy the same products of food.
If yer going to be a fucking knob, WORLD CLASS is the way to go! The best of the best! Not some half-ass tard who’s barely making the grade, but the finest knob you can be! I’m working on becoming a WORLD CLASS ASSHOLE, but I think the WEB SHERIFF beat me to it.
Bluenoser, yer in the running too though, lol. KIDDING! 🙂
It’s not just based on the comments on this thread, it’s all the shit the hater spews 24/7. I’ve yet to see him/her/it post one positive thing. The Bitcher is supposed to be the one bitching. Perhaps I’m suffering from Beep and Donair withdrawl…
You need some FedExed to you, stat!
Real juice is the way to go…I have heard of beep, I haven’t had it. Sounds disgusting, like that sugar D crap.
yeah the tang was good, but the poontang was better.
you want something positive from me bluenoser, well i’m positive you are an asshole that hates n.s, so much, you ran away when things get warm, and oh yes, get bent, fucked, folded and spindled while at it. i guess you don’t read all my comments too well either. too bad, you miss a lot by being stupid as well as being blind. and as to me leaving n.s., nah, this place would be boring without yours truly. suck on that hunk.
That’s were you’re wrong LoSer, I love the city, the county and the province. From Yarmouth to Sydney and everything in between. I know your type, just some social zit living on his own, with nothing better to do than try to pass the shit that is your life onto others. For someone who can barely spell you shouldn’t be questioning anyone’s intelligence, at least you knew ‘a lot’ is two words. FUCK OFF AND DIE! and the next time I’m in Hali I will be looking to punch a hole in your face, but I’m sure you’re the type who will prefer to remain anonymous…so get back under your rock where you belong.
just roll around looking for an old, white crown vic. I doubt there are more than a couple…
Thanks zZz, much appreciated…
You shoulda seen the amount of sugar I had to put in a batch of beep to make it! Dumping 90lb bags of sugar into the blender, pumping in liquid sugar through a pipe, and squeezing the sugary beep concentrate out of bags… ick! People wonder why North Americans are so fat? We put 3+ kinds of sugar in every product! Oh, and don’t get me started on the wandering bees that found their way in…LOL
Yeah, someone who worked at Farmers once told me, if I knew what they were putting in it, I wouldn’t drink it. Anyone know when the end is? Truly though with all the other products these days it’s not hard to see why it died off. Just another one of those things I can’t get in BC, like – Russet apples, Heinz Sandwich spread, Christmas toy candy, fake Chinese food, a good donair, Golden Ginger Ale, diced chickenburgers, Orange Pineapple Ice Cream…but now I can’t get Beep anywhere. Shite!
I’ll miss Beep too. So many memories in Elementary school. That and juice packs. Now those fuckers bring me back.
As an aside, I was upset to find out that McD’s doesn’t serve orange drink anymore.
You know, the stuff they used to serve at school functions, doesn’t taste like orange, all you can taste is the colouring.
mmmmmmm Beeeeeeepppp, droooooollll. A kid’s best friend.
Dr. Fever – That orange drink was the best! I never even thought they really sold it at macdonalds.. The only place I’ve ever drank it was at sports events and at field day in elementary school.
Did anyone else think that Beep was actually milk mixed with juice when they first saw it?
Ahh beep. Takes me back to my pre-diabetic days oh so long ago. Now, only the horror of hypoglycemia brings me back to your sweet nectar. *sigh*
The last time I was this upset over a discontinued drink was when farmers stopped making pink panther juice.
I’ll see you on the bus to hell, Farmers. See you on the bus to hell *shakes fist*
Man do I have fond fond memories of that sweet nectar stuff. We used to get fucking baked in high school and eat Ham salad sandwiches and wash it down with Beep, fantastic stuff. We also loved using it in waterpipes too, man nothing like Beep flavored Ganga.
zzz it isn’t a crown vic, it’s a classic 96 lincoln mark 7, the ceam of fords crop. as for the blue boy from asshole river in b.c., get fucking bent goof. you have a very nice day now, you hear.
Exactly Burning Man, great for a hangover too.
Hey LoSer, wtf is a ceam? Is that when you sew two pieces of fabric together, maybe you should put the crack pipe down when you type or just not type at all…
I love poking the bull…. stoking the fire….
fabreezing the smoker….
hey Bluenoser, I heard LS called yo’ mama fat.
how fat was she?
she was so fat the herald did an article on her and the photo was on pages A5, A6, A7, A8, and A9.
Heh, a Lincoln as the “cream” of Ford’s crop. Which is essentially a Crown Vic with different badges that you pay 5 grand more for, and maybe a bigger, thirstier, engine.
Anywho….
lol i agree with Blue noser..i doubt in all seriousness that if anything DID come about that LS would be going to greet anyone. love tough guys…ROOOOOOOOOOID RAAAAAAAGEEEE. Back to beep, i had it once, and since im already bouncing off the walls with extra energy i was quickly banned from drinking it again at work. what happened to the wandering bees….did they become super bees. i want to know!! you said dont ask but i want to know about super bees.
Hahahaha, Caps Lock off Clown, sounds like ‘roid rage’ to me , except with you it’s hemorroids.
Oh No, pulled from the site, you gonna run to ‘Andy’ I guess?
That’s why I love this so, an idiot like you, who does nothing put shit on everyone and then when the shoe is on the other foot runs and cries to mama, Yo mama’s so fat even her bathtub has stretch marks and btw, It was my bitch, so I can wander if I want to…
beep flavoured ganga sounds awesome…is it too late burning man?
Now that sounds like a full meal, some BC Weed followed by a NS Donair and some NS Beep…
I’m not sure Paingirl, you might want to shop around for some last minute stock. If ya find some, hoard the stuff because Beep tasting Ganja is sooo smooth, you can Bogart the whole bowl, that is, until you cough so hard that you spit up a lung:p
They haven’t announced a final date yet have they?
I can tell you that I bought a 1L carton of the stuff at Save-Easy today. Sweeeeeeeet.
Bluenoser in BC: Farmer’s has announced that over the next few weeks it will no longer be available. It’s a get it while you can situation. If you still have contacts here now is the time to have them grab you some!
what the hell is beep anywho; and what’s that private really gingery ginger ale i really liked that stuff 🙂
BEEP is a fruit juice beverage made of orange juice and other juices, a lot of sugar and a whole host of other ingredients. It has been made by Farmers Dairy for decades. It used to be available in other parts of the country but Farmer’s in Nova Scotia is about the last to phase the product out due in part to the abundance of fresh natural juices available in today’s marketplace as opposed to years ago when choices were not as abundant. Recent years have seen it fill mostly a nostalgia product niche, not enough to make it hugely profitable, hence it’s demise.
Is that Sussex Golden Ginger Ale you are thinking of martym?
Sussex Golden Ginger Ale another classic beverage unavailable in BC. Anyone remember Gurgles the Clown?
thanx yes that is what i was thinking of too bad it’s not available on the west coast dang 🙁
Martym you too? 🙁
yea me too it’s ironic but i got a gig in a maritime themed joint called the atlantic tap & grill opening soon check out it’s web site 🙂
do they still make seaman’s beverages on the island i liked the lime rickey
martym will the bar staff be surly just like home?^^
Does anyone here remember “Tahiti Treat” or was that just an “Out West” thing?
Tahiti treat was the pop you could only get at KFC, I’m not sure if it was in NS too though? I know I used to buy it in Bermuda too. The Atlantic is that in Van? There used to be one with a similar name a few years ago there too. PG do you mean Vancouver Island? Is it a clear bottle with white lettering? Can’t say I’ve seen it for sure but I’ll keep looking and let you know.
i remember that stuff ruby jane but i’m not from round here
sorry mr. blue just read your post no i mean the anne of green gables island
NP PG
tahiti treat omfg that stuff was basically cream soda except sweeter if that’s technically possable; it was made by canada dey and available everywhere in ON.
