Thank heavens for Goody Powders. I moved to Colorado shortly after graduating from college (just in time for ski season) and on encountering my first headache thought I was going to die. Not only did markets and convenience stores not stock Goody or BC powders, but they had never heard of them. No sweet tea was one thing, but living without headache powders was another. My mom had to ship them to me until I figured out that I couldn't ski or snowboard very well and the life of a ski bunny was not for me.

Thanks for sharing your funny story! If your mom knows where the Goody's and Coke combo came from, I'd love to know. Meanwhile, stay off the snowboards. The slopes are no place for a Southerner! Ha, ha.

The Coke and Goody combo simply comes from the fact that Goody's taste horrible, and Coke kills the bad taste. lol. I am from Tennessee, and I will attest to Goody's effectiveness.
