Reply to comment by hells_cowbells in TIL that Barq's Root Beer was first created by Edward Barq in Biloxi, Miss, in 1897. In 1934, Barq and a former employee, who moved to New Orleans, agreed to each distribute their own version of the root beer, with the New Orleans version having a red label and the Biloxi version having a blue one. by jdward01

Amen, brother. This is one of my most favorite meals and favorite childhood memory. There was a local seafood shop that I would ride my bike to and buy the shrimp poboy and barqs with my allowance. So so good.
