Mzansi netizens share their experiences with the ice cream van

Taking to the comment section, some Redditors shared that the vehicle is still seen in their neighbourhoods, while others reminisced on their childhoods.

Coming to the realisation that someone lied to them, u/BennyAndTheMeths said:

"As kids, we were told that if you can hear the tune playing, it means the ice cream is sold out. Apparently, this is not true."

Not a fan of the taste, u/LanternsAndPhoenixes wrote:

"I remember running barefoot outside just so that I don't miss them. To be honest, their ice cream was sadly not that grand."

u/Internet-Mouse1 found joy in the question u/ovi2wise posed and said:

"Gosh, that jingle is so iconic."

u/guitnut stated that not only could they hear the picture but smell it too, adding:

"Seeing this also reminds me of the straw broom sellers... You guys remember that?"
