Chock full O....?

The name of this blog began with the coffee, Chock Full O Nuts. If you're from the NY/NJ area, you've heard of this brand of first nuts, then coffee. Just a little bit of history... William Black started Chock Full O Nuts in 1926 in NYC; by 1932 all nut shops were converted to coffee shops, selling a good cup of coffee and a sandwich for a nickle! That man who lives under the bridge here could be SET for life with that kind of deal! LOL I grew up with the coffee cans holding not only coffee, but nails/small hardware, and other small objects!

And the Coffee is still going strong 75 years after it's birth... now offering a *new* selection made with Organic coffee beans!
