Zero bars were good, but not a candy bar eater much anymore so can't say I actually miss them.
I was never a chocolate fan, not even as a kid, so Zero was my favorite candy bar growing up.

Zero candy bars have not been discontinued, although they may not be as readily available as they once were. I know that Walgreens carries them because I actually bought one not too long ago here in Miami. I know they're available for purchase through Amazon as well.
I'll add something in here.. Planters Cheez Balls. The closest thing to them is the big barrel of Utz that you can get from Walmart.. But there was something magical about Planters.
I agree. The UTZ cheese balls are just not the same.
I miss Tato Skins and this brand of potato chip called O'Gradys. They had this really thick, ridged loaded potato chip that I loved. I think that it was a short-lived brand.

Sky Bar candy bars. The ones with the four segments, chocolate, caramel, marshmallow, and peanut butter. There is a stall at the local Farmer's Markets that sells homemade and old-timey candies. Maybe they have them there.
The Aldi in my area sell their version of them, and are delicious! Very reasonable, too.....I think less than $1.50 a package of 16 or so.
Are we talking about the type that are two vanilla wafer like cookeis sandwiched around a marshmallow with maybe a tiny bit of apricot jam to hold it together? Those Nabisco Marshmallow cookies? And if so does Aldi do mail order?
About 10 years or so ago, Godiva mass-produced ice cream in pints and sold it in supermarkets. They had several varieties, all with a base of Belgian chocolate, like Raspberry and White Chocolate. This was the richest, creamiest, most chocolatey, BEST ice cream I have ever had, and the price was quite reasonable too.
After maybe 2-3 years of production, Godiva was having problems with the manufacturer (CoolFoods), so they sold the recipe to a company in Canada I raced around to all the local stores to buy up the last pints. To my knowledge it's not been produced again.
A few years ago Godiva tried selling soft-serve ice cream in their retail stores. I tried it and didn't like it; it wasn't that chocolatey and it had some kind of weird chemical after-taste.
"Zero" candy bars. I know they still make them, but last time I saw was at a convenience store on outskirts of town. Also "Skybar" - 5 different flavors in 1 bar.
skybars.....my mouth is watering,,,i could eat 20 of them today
Stouffer's Boil-in-bag Chili
Hillshire Farm Old World Style Cooked Bratwurst
The real Dannon fruit-on-the bottom yoghurt (like the one in the paper container)
Full-size Drake's Coffee Cake/full-size Drake's Ring-Ding (yeah I know I can eat two of the Jr. size instead)
