The electronic tone of "Turkey in the Straw" is one of the happiest sounds ever. It means an ice-cream truck is nearby, and--if you can catch it--you can trade a few dollars for a frozen chunk of happiness (for me, a Sno-Cone, the one thing inside the truck you can't buy anywhere else). Trouble is, those trucks are fast--you have mere seconds to grab your money, run outside, and flag the vehicle down before it disappears again. Ironically, it's impossible to snag those empty calories if you're too chubby to chug down the sidewalk after it.
