Halloween Goblin Nog
October 12th, 2009 by John Wolfe
Halloween Egg Nog has once again started appearing on local store shelves! Being a huge fan of egg nog in general, I’m twice as thrilled to see it wrapped in a Halloween themed carton. Years ago, when I used to work in grocery, we had two companies supplying us with Halloween egg nog. Sadly, one of them (Borden) no longer makes it but at least we still have the Creamland variety. I believe it was Borden who used to call it “Goblin Nog.”
That name stuck with me and I still refer to it as “goblin juice” or “the nog of the goblin.” Come to think of it, that last one doesn’t sound too appetizing when I phrase it that way! 
Seriously though, it’s super good stuff. Thanks, Creamland!
Here are a few Halloween jokes that are always featured on the packaging:
1.) Where do little ghosts learn to yell “BOO!”?
2.) How do you picture yourself flying on a broom?
3.) What did the papa ghost say to the baby ghost?
4.) Who does a ghoul fall in love with?
Answers:
1.) In noisery school.
2.) By witchful thinking.
3.) Fasten your sheet belt.
4.) His ghoul friend.
Obviously these were written for kids and not a grownup in his thirties. Of course, the thirty part fits me, but the grownup part may be up for debate. 
Whatever the case, I still enjoy reading them.
