Times Square in 1971. A huge ad for No-Cal soda. That shit was nasty. Had the aftertaste of a middle school chemistry experiment.

Nedick's Food Stores
Except from Restaurant Confidential: The Down and Dirty Exploits of a Restaurant Manager by: Daniel Golio
The Nedick's chain was founded by Robert T. Neely, a real estate investor, and Orville A. Dickinson. The original Nedick's stand opened in a hotel storefront at the Bartholdi Hotel in 1913. In the 1970’s the company was purchased by the Ogden Corporation of Manhattan.
I landed a job as the breakfast cook with Nedick’s foodservice who at the time was known for its signature orange drink and Sabrett® hot dogs, with a unique mustard relish in a toasted bun.
Nedick’s operated full-service coffee shops and multi-unit operations in the Port Authority Bus Terminal in New York City as well as Penn and Grand Central stations. . . .
