I'm not sure if this is still available, I haven't seen it lately. In college it was Cheez Whiz and peanut butter on Saltines. I'd plow through a sleeve of that mess at 3AM on the weekends

Being as this is a three-year-old topic, I don't know if I already mentioned that I wish they still made PB Max, a peanut butter cup made w/crunchy peanut butter that also had a chocolate cookie in it. Apparently M&M/Mars stopped making it b/c the Mars family doesn't like peanut butter.

Yet peanut butter M&M's still exist, so I don't know what the hell is going on with that company.

I have fond memories of PB Max. It was one of the best candies of all time then it was gone. Just vanished, never to be seen again. So a few years ago I googled it to see what happened and I found out that it was discontinued because the Mars family hates peanut butter. Sales were good but they just don't like peanut butter so they dropped it. Makes no sense. If they hate peanut butter that much then why did they make PB Max in the first place? Why have they put peanut butter in some of their other candies like M&Ms, Twix, and Snickers? Mars family please, get it together.

Twix PB is practically the same as PB Max, just a different shape and no oats in the peanut butter. But, yeah, if you hate peanut butter, then 1) why is it in one of your signature candies (M&M's), and 2) what the hell is wrong with you?

I'm not sure if they still have them or not, but they left my hometown. The South Bend Chocolate Factory used to have a few coffee shops and in them you could get a dark chocolate Mocha, using real melted dark chocolate in a mixer.

Best damn Mocha I've had. When I'd visit my parents I'd go there just for that.

did you have any issues with opening the bag inside?

speaking of, what is the deal with opening packaging these days - any Whole Food product needs a pair of garden shears to open it and most other packaging isn't much better

also, my wife mangles every box she tries to open- while aesthetically she has nice hands, any time i go to open a cheese-its box after she's gotten to it first i imagine her with these

It's like you're married to George "The Animal" Steele.

NEW ORLEANS DRINKS
Remember Slice soft drink? It's coming back in 2018: report

NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune
Mark Thomann, "a Chicago entrepreneur with a knack for reclaiming old brands," plans to bring back the 1990s soft drink Slice, with a few modifications, according to the Chicago Tribune.

Dormitus Brands and Spiral Sun Ventures, two businesses owned by Thomann, plan to put the soft drink on grocery shelves in late 2018.

The drink had been owned by PepsiCo.


"The new Slice will be a lower-sugar, lower-calorie beverage sweetened only with real -- possibly organic -- fruit juice," the Tribune reported. "The product's still being developed, but the plan is to distribute it nationally through regional retailers in six months or so."

Thomann told the Tribune that Slice should appeal to millennials seeking a healthier soft drink as well as be "pleasantly familiar to people of a certain age."

Popcorn bunnies with the candy eyes. They used to sell them around Easter but I have not seen them in years.

I remember those, haven’t seen them either

Do they still make solid chocolate Easter bunnies?

Seems like they’re all hollow now

The solid ones would last until Memorial Day or longer

Do they still make King Vitamin? I never ate it, but I remember seeing the box in the grocery store once and being really creeped out by this guy... and I was like 23 at the time.

I'm sure it's been dropped a hundred times by this point, but not a day goes by that I don't miss me some Hubig's pies.
