I am sooo glad you remember. As I said-my husband does not remember. He says he never heard of them or had one. He pretty much remembers all the other stuff when we talk about growing up in the 70's and 80's in NJ. Is it possible this was a central/southern NJ thing? Did anyone in northern NJ have them and love them as much as Wiley and me?

My husband grew up in northern NJ and does not remember them. I grew up in Ocean County and loved them and remember kids always bringing them in their lunchboxes. People up here in NH that I ask do not recall them.


Do you guys remember Chocodiles?

They're a Hostess snack, and may still be available at convenience stores. If not, you can order them here:

We have them here in New Mexico periodically. It's not all the time, but I've had them since I've moved here. Happy days are here again, that's all I have to say!

Marye711, they are not gross. They are the nectar of the gods.

LOL I thought I was the only one who said "It's the Pedal on the right" while screaming at the slowass in front of me! And I believe we know "Fries with Mozz and Gravy" as "Disco Fries" due to the fact that the kids eat them at like 3 AM after coming back from the clubs in the city.

And here I thought I was the only one screaming about the pedal on the right!!! I keep wondering if they lost that pedal, some people drive too slow for Jersey.
