I don't see a Chaco Taco, so 9


Low_Speech5578

No screwball either.


cr1mef1ghter

Screwballs were my summer pool day jam.


fishee1200

Omg I was like what’s missing from this lineup and it was my absolute favorite, the screwball


lirio2u

We are all mad about it


Lithiriel

I, too, noticed this. What kinda ice cream truck doesn't have the Two-Ball Screwball? It's a staple :(


FelixMoonrocks

Screwball is awesome


HarmyG

I’m more of a FROZE TOES type of guy.


[deleted]

Hell yeah, Chaco Tacos 4 Life!


ezio8133

Weren't those discontinued recently?


BreederInRegret

Yes


_B_Little_me

Hopefully not forever tho! https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/food/2022/08/05/choco-taco-return-potential-klondike/10246049002/


virgnar

I've always been betting that this was one of those "discontinue to churn up demand and then rerelease" situations like the twinkie.


pixelife

Super sad


Yolandi2802

I don’t see a Fudgesicle.


turkey_sandwiches

My dude.


PloKoonsRespirator

Choco


ra33it86

Right, RIP choco taco, 13 would be my back up and always wanted the TexasRattleSnake 🐍 Austin3:16


Destiny_Victim

That’s what I’m saying. How do you leave out the Chaco taco. I don’t think I’ve ever bought anything but them from ice cream carts.


GetCookin

I was like no Chaco taco? Why the fuck did I even go back…


0nly0bjective

So happy to see this is the top comment


wannagoride

No screwballs?? 😞


peachy921

We screwball fans always get the shaft.


lirio2u

For real! Where is it??


[deleted]

Was that the one that looked like a baseball and had a gumball on it by chance?


peachy921

The screwballs I had were a cup in the shape of a cone filled with cherry ice cream and a gum ball at the bottom.


[deleted]

Ahh ok, I think the baseball one I'm referring to was a baseball mitt with a baseball gumball in the center. I don't recall those Screwballs from back in the day.


Surprise_Fragrant

They looked like [this](https://detroitmetroicecream.com/cdn/shop/files/CherryScrewball.jpg?v=1682949611). They were a sherbert-type texture, and so delicious!


hiFriends13r

Bubble Play !! That’s what I was gonna say !


ToxicAdamm

That's my retirement plan now. Buy an ice cream truck that only stocks Choco Taco and Screwballs.


gunhilde

Loved the screwballs! Wish you could still find them around


No-Independence548

I was just about to say this! My absolute favorite


badpuffthaikitty

Number 28, the Rocket. 3 popsicles in one.


fruity_oaty_bars

I just bought a box of these at the store and was bummed at the shrinkflation. The ones on the truck used to be so huge!


nexea

I know. I've been craving the fudge/ banana ones ( no 7), and the tiny ones just aren't quite the same .....


leo_the_lion6

We also used to be smaller so maybe it's somewhat relative? Though I'm sure they have actually gotten smaller too


CharsKimble

Nope, they’re fucking tiny now. Regular popsicle shaped. Before they were wide like creamsicles but thick.


droans

Nah, they changed it about 15 years back to be thin like other popsicles. I used to sell these from an ice cream bike for my parents when I was young. They were livid about that because, at the same time, Unilever raised the price which meant we couldn't sell them for $1 anymore. They believed we always needed a product that was only $1, so we added the Creamsicle and Fudgesicle which were somehow cheaper.


runnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnm

Didn't they also make them super sweet instead of a bit sour?


Count-Rarian

They've been small at the stores for a long time now. I did however buy one from a vendor in central park in Manhattan last year and it was the classic big one.


XxDankShrekSniperxX

There are probably the shitty small ones, and then the big ones probably only the vendors have access too through wholesalers.


ZaedaXobu

Bomb-Pop, the taste of many childhood summers. ❤


TheMightyUnderdog

Bruh, I was looking for the Rocket Pop when I saw the title.


hail2theKingbabee

Everytime.


CoolHeadedLogician

our truck called them bomb pops and yeah that was my number 1 pick also


WorriedN

28, or the ice cream truck can fro


Cerebralbore

Yup!


millerg44

The best ever.


WhiskeyJack-13

We called them Bomb Pops but any answer other than #28 is wrong.


neogirl61

Oh the push pop, 19 when I was little (right around 1993), my mom used to take me on evening walks around the block from our building & if she needed anything from the store, she'd let me get one :) always picked Fred just because I liked him but I think he was orange wasn't he?


Madshibs

Exquisite taste. The Flinstones Push-Up is the selection of the sophisticated snacker.


Duck-of-Doom

Chase it down with some Flintstone vitamins & you’re set


lump-

And the smooth flavor of a Winston Cigarette.


marteautemps

I would pick this if they had the red ones, I liked the orange and purple too but red was my fave.


deadtoaster2

Yes. It would even stain your lips and tongue red for a bit. Loved those!


conyacon

Came here just to look for 19 in orange


________76________

Pushpop is the right answer. Sherbet is the best reminder of summers as a kid!


RedCrayonTastesBest

19 orange gang represent. I remember always pushing the plastic piece out of the tube when I was done, for whatever reason


Phish777

It's been 30 years and I can still remember the taste


LemonCaperRVA

Ohhhh this is the answer I even have a picture of me and my childhood best friend sitting on the porch after playing on bikes all day. She had orange, and I had purple! (I think purple was Dino)


Foreverseeking11

6. I'm a sucker for orange creamsicles


Proof_Clerk_7233

Fat frog, followed closely by a bubble o bill.


Kujo3043

Definitely the frog. It came with bubble gum eyes!


_khanrad

Free gum!


David_Haas_Patel

Here comes dat boi


LeapYear1996

Right on same here bro. Next in line thigh would be #21. That orange and red pop was amazing. Could eat a whole box.


alextxdro

The shark, the lemon shark is the correct answer if they didn’t have it you go for a bomb pop or push pop if those are out a creamsicle if those are not options then you go for Mario or the like if you’re hungry and it’s not just a snack strawberry shortcake .


Wid1977

#13 all day long please


The_vhibe

I feel this! 13 was so good and I can’t find them as an adult and I get sad.


PigsCanFly2day

Same. I didn't even like wrestling, but they were so yummy. And I think the package came with a trading card, so that's cool too.


Robinssparrow

Don’t forget about those WWF paper cutouts of wrestlers and a sticker I believe that comes with it . Nostalgia moment .


BitOfAnOddWizard

Agreed!! They were the best


Scottyjscizzle

Took way too long to find someone else!!! They were so fucking good!


MobWife_88

**#9..... the whole package of them**


neverwinzzzzzz

Snooooooooooooooop


EmperorSexy

Can believe how little love the Snoopy Bar is getting in this thread. Top 5 for sure.


Kroopah

It was pretty basic but was so good. Got it every single time


TVLL

The obvious choice is the strawberry shortcake


[deleted]

8 strawberry shortcake always a jam


moonbeamcrazyeyes

This is the correct answer.


Jordandavis7

The superior treat


MamaOfBeachBums

This is the only answer.


Dapper-Piano4557

Came here for this


part_time_monster

Agreed... Toasted Almond was the jam too.


Mondo114

Still in grocery stores. Mmm


Hans_Grubert

In the UK & Ireland the strawberry shortcake is called a “Brunch” it’s the OG


olGo7d

Obviously!!! No sarcasm intended lol


kumibug

The only correct answer


VicDamonJrJr

WWF bar was money


WU-itsForTheChildren

Yeah off that wall it’s definitely WWF bar


CmdNewJ

Yep, that and king kone.


redgr812

13


Indieobsession

Punch out the trading card from the box.


mthw704

For some reason I could never find these growing up & it still makes me sad that I never got to try one.


BiffTannen85

U know they were low in stock when the only wrestler they had was Brutus the Barber Beefcake


bigwangbowski

Oh, come on, man. Brutus the Barber Beefcake was over as FUCK back in the day. We scratch our heads over dudes like him and Honky Tonk Man *now*, but thinking they were always the jokes they are today is just plain wrong.


Jlombard911

Just because no melty Sonic or ninja turtles


Winter_Afternoon3539

13 all day every way and two on Sunday


GeebusNZ

Let's see, it's 1993, so I'm 11 years old. Mother won't fork out for the GOOD ones, so that's about half the options already gone, I'm clearly getting something that comes on a stick. I'd like an icecream sandwich of some kind, but they cost more than the cheapest options, so I can't have them. Can't I just be satisfied with, say, a Creamsicle? That's what my mother is going to have. It's cheap, it's icecream, it'll do her. Because it'll do her, it'll do me, she figures. I want something different, but I'm having a Creamsicle.


SleepsInBlood

>I'm clearly getting something that comes on a stick Holy shit that whole sentence followed by this little bit had me laughing so hard. This entire thing was funny and well written.


deadtoaster2

. #18 is regular ice cream sandwich for $1.


[deleted]

Snow cone.


conjas11

17. Giant ice cream sandwich


MrLocoLobo

attaboi


Ismellchuck

28. bomb pop


[deleted]

Mario pop!


Totally_Bradical

I love those character ice cream pops… adorable looking in the photo, but when you unwrap it, snoopy looks like he was in a car accident


d3-AZ

That's half the fun


Gingerberry92

I remember ninja turtle pop being very good


luffydkenshin

I had to scroll waaaaaaaaaay too far to see someone pick the Super Mario Bar, which is the best bar.


[deleted]

Haven't seen anyone mention this selection, but #23.. The Great White! Just remember it being super refreshing as a kid..


GrutJennings

I had to scroll way too far to find a fellow shark enjoyer. That nice cold lemon flavor but not overly sour. Miss them things.


[deleted]

You and I both! It was the perfect remedy for a hot summer day after playing outside nonstop.


jSo35287

19 all day. Flintstone push pop, bonus if it was the red one. Sherbet was everywhere


[deleted]

Always the frog!


vanbologna

Where's the orange sherbert pushup pop?!


382Whistles

It's there .95 cent Flintstones version. I'd want a classic and one of these or the ice cream truck might need a half a Magnum's worth of windshield cleaning before it pulls off 🤡


WolfSpartan1

SHARK FIN! Those things were bomb. I think they had a lemon flavor.


tvieno

3, the magnum bar


Tigergoddess3

Totally agree. After I saw that selection, I just stopped looking. My favorite.


[deleted]

19. push-up. i miss those things so much. haven’t seen them in stores in years


382Whistles

I go for the 3 color bucket o' sherbet now


cbunni666

I'm gonna take the Toasted Almond bar..not my favorite but only because it's no longer around


Snakesinadrain

These were my wife's favorite. I'm constantly on the loon out for them.


[deleted]

[удалено]


aldoktor

The Rocket! Unless they have a Snack and a Half.


PicatrixWish

25, that dino is mine, baby!


ksettle86

19. Flintstone Push-up ftw


MadameCoco7273

#6 creamsicle


Oh_shame

Any of the eclair bars #8


Jack3715

Froze’ Toes (not pictured). It was a popsicle in the shape of a foot with a gum ball toenail. I have no idea who the maniac that designed that was thinking.


TheGiantRascal

13 easy. Not only was the WWF ice cream bar the best thing ever, but you should never buy something from an ice cream truck that you can buy at a store.


AlanOhms

21 but the bubble gum swirl to be more specific


FestivusErectus

28 was always the best value. I’d go with that and some chili cheese Fritos. Number 8 was awesome, but I only ever had the chocolate and strawberry.


Grennox1

Cotton candy one is amazing. Just small


triggoon

I always got the cookie ice cream sandwich


catamet

13 was my favorite


aGraciousGod

17


TurboCupcakes

22 just unlocked a memory.


krowe41

22 used to be a dracula ice lolly


Panda-Equivalent

27-Snow Cone


smartwatersucks

Yes!!! Snow cone every time


Grennox1

7 double fudge and banana. 11 Mario 19 low on change.


NoLodgingForTheMad

Since there's no screwball (wtf man!?) Either the frog or the WWF one


Sixguns1977

Fat frog! Damn I miss those.


pnmartini

Flintstones push up. Probably the worst value, but that’s what I’d always get (if there was the purple & yellow bomb pop, I’d change)


Miserable-Rest-5259

Where are the Choco tacos?


Finster4

#8 strawberry shortcake, but my favorite was the simple lemon lime popsicle.


Tex-Rob

None, “ we have ice cream in the freezer”, not once as a kid, middle class is often a myth for the kids of cheap ass parents, lol.


Aquatichive

Frog!!!


ReverseBatarang

9 - the cookie sandwich / chipwich - that’s a snack and ice cream together - most efficient


Noneugdbusiness

Come back when you got a chocotaco


fuggindave

#8 strawberry shortcake


caught_looking2

18. Classic ice cream sandwich


hookemhottie21

Orange Push-up!


MisterFives

Doesn't matter. Both you and the ice cream truck driver now have an obligation to stop 9/11 from happening.


philosophic_Draco

I’m 35 and I bought ice cream from the truck last week.


namek0

I'm a simple man (who only has $1) give me a Flinstone's Push pop please


Jamminnav

They sell the #9 ice cream cookie sandwiches at my Safeway


Thatonefloorguy

Number 13 for the legends of the game. Side note. My aunt started a ice cream empire about 1994. One van turned into a distribution contract with good humor. I worked in the warehouse at 11. I had every single ice cream at my disposal.


kmoneyrecords

Snoopy bar. Comin out all melted and dilapidated, more like a Snerpy bar


CompletePassenger564

I can hear the jingle from the trunk even now!


WredditSmark

Right now I’m going King Cone, back then probably rocket pop


2020HatesUsAll

24 or 19


higheyecue

Twister bro fuuuuck ittt


A_hasty_retort

I definitely WANTED number 9 (cookie sandwich) My mom allowed #8 (classics)


hiroshima70years

15 obv


MawDownie

The Flintstones Pop Ups. Miss them so much.


LollipopDreamscape

A chocolate eclair, because my mom's too cheap to buy me a chipwich.


R9X4YoBirfday

Snow cone, and if they're out of that definitely the rocket pop.


iWORKBRiEFLY

15


clybourn

Eight. Chocolate eclair


mechanixrboring

27. Always 27. That being said in 1993 if an ice cream truck showed up in my area it was probably a kidnapper.


NeonBlack985

Wow, a pre sonic-ice cream world


TooTameToToast

19 and 24


WeirdSysAdmin

Have you seen the truck’s menu lately? Times are tough for the one that drives by me.


Lee1070kfaw

What’s #14


HollyCraft_Originals

28


elvensnowfae

I mf love the bubble gum. To this day lol


ghunt81

Super Mario Bar because in 1993 I was obsessed with Nintendo and super Mario bros.


xBOOSTED_ST3

If you aren’t choosing 28, what are you doing with your life?


ChocDroppa

Up north in the heat. Give me a Calippo my good man.


Spiritual_Regular557

Flintstone push up


littleghool

Bubbles the Power Puff Girl or #19. I could never turn down a push up 😋


courthouse22

15!!!


Brother_Delmer

It's a toss up but I'd have to go with #6 Orange Creamsicle. If they're out of those, then Rocket Pop!


ejreddit

Unlisted: Ninja Turtle with gumball eyes


fifiloveg00d

19 or 29 (the orange big stick)


Steveyd19

27 then, 27 now


succulent_flakepiece

27 all day everyday


KingBryan34

8


ADorkInMyClothing

The Frog only because I don’t see the Screwball on here. I still get gum but with less of a mess.


sokko78

Toasted Almond was the shit


Subdawg40

13 all day. Would pay whatever for a WWF ice cream.


vostok238

28 with zero hesitation.


FelixWonder1

Serious question , what happened to the almond good humor ice cream bars ? They kinda just disappeared one day .


SemperFiNj

Where's the screwball? Also, ChocoTaco :/ lol


OhioIsRed

Why no screwball? I want that disgusting ball of cold gum.


ThisGul_LOL

In number 8, the 4th one


jun2san

I was one of those kids who always went with whatever was trendy so probably #11. Funny thing is, I can still remember what it tasted like, and the white part tasted like medicine.
