They Don't Make It Anymore. . . Defunct Foods You Miss

I fucking love Pay Days.

The wrapper claims that it's "A lighter way to enjoy chocolate."™ Pardon my soon to be revealed ignorance, but surely freezing would be contrary to the whole endeavour? Wouldn't that turn it into some form of "ice pop?"

Trust him on that. It becomes like the ice cream.

Tastykake can't be rare. They sell them in Walmart.

Not around here. It depends on the area, not the store.

Shouldn't I try one the regular way first, though, the better to appreciate the alternative?

*looks at Lisa* Are you sure? Wal-mart prides itself on selling close to the same merchandise at all it's stores. Took a picture (posted to FB for Ingrid) even. They were located in the aisle next to the frozen foods. A veritable mountain of Tastykake.

[Abraham Smashington]

It is. That's not too hard to find, but the rest might as well have been gold brand dust.

YUM.

No. If you eat it regular it's just a lame "healthy" chocolate alternative bullshit. They shouldn't be sold on the shelf, only out of the freezer.

I was in Subway today, (I had a coupon) and I noticed that the Peppercorn Ranch Sun Chips were gone.

I'll have to remember to check - I need to get to Walmart, but I don't know if I can this weekend. If you're right - you are my god!

FABULOUS!!! Just have to see what's actually at the one out by George's place.

[Bobby Bear]

I tried some of my first Butterfinger with my post-dinner coffee. It's delightful, but very sweet. Even from what I remember of American chocolates. As I suspected, it is very close to the defunct Cadbury peanut bar I mentioned initially.

Billy, as per your advice, I'm gonna ice half of those Musketeers. Best of both worlds kinda thing is what I'm going for.

Oh, when I was going to bed last night I looked into the bag I brought all the bars home in and realized there was one more still inside...



I'm loving the Yank predilection for combining chocolate and peanuts.

[Abraham Smashington]

THOSE ARE THE BEST THINGS EVER.

[Ed Hocken]

I love mini Mr. Goodbars. Just sucking on the chocolate and then chewing on the peanuts.


Yes, I'm aware of what I said.

[BillyG]

I hate Mr. Goodbars. Every time I get a bag of Hershey Miniatures I dump all the Goodbars out and give them to whatever Goodbar Loving Heathen is around.
