why would anyone do this?

A tall glass jar with a metal screw lid, about the size of a peanut jar, if that helps. The label reads PDQ Instant egg nog flavored beads. The sub heading helpfully suggests that it flavors one full gallon (of milk).

For anyone not of that particular era or region, PDQ was postwar American slang for Pretty Da(rn) Quick, which I guess someone decided to trademark.

It's either a gallon or it isn't! Don't give me this "Full" gallon shit.

I love egg nog. My favorite holiday treat is the boozy Pennsylvania Dutch stuff they have in the grocery store. It's not the best in the world by any stretch, but it sure tastes like nostalgia.

If I remember correctly, it's like Ovaltine but eggnog flavored, and I am pretty sure I had it in England in the 80's.

@chauffi I dunno if it was sold in England, but it was definitely sold in the US in the 70s.

Drank that PDQ like it was water in the desert when I was a kid. It didn't actually taste good but it was vaguely scented of eggnog and eggnog is awesome therefore this was also awesome == 8 year old's syllogism.

Egg Nog was one of those things I loved so much for decades only to finally hit a point where I hated it. Weird how that happens.
