had one of those in years, but yeah...they were great.

I had a method for eating them, too.

First, peel off the marshmallow/coconut skin and eat slowly, savoring each bite.

Then attack the chocolate part...eat around the outside of the cake, leaving the cream for last.

Pop the whole thing into the mouth and taste the creamy goodness.

Then...last crucial part...

a glass of ice cold milk.

OMG. It's almost a sexual experience...

Thanks for the link.

There are products that are gone forever, such as:

Laura Scudder Potato Chips
Peter & Paul Almond Cluster
Granny Goose Potato Chips (I like chips, as you can see)
Hershey's Gold (not sure of its name, but it was a big chocolate bar with lots of almonds)

Lots more.

When she walked through the door and handed them to me I didn't argue.

I'll just run a couple of extra miles tomorrow to make up for it. I go through spurts in giving up sugar. About every 6 months or so I'll give it up completely for a couple of weeks.

Twinkies, Sno Balls, Chocolate puffed cakes of various types. I can't remember the names of most of them but this is a whole category of "food", I use the term food lightly here as I'm not sure if something that never expires is strictly speaking food I'm lucky I never got into these.
