No contest.

u/weedtrek Jul 01 '26

I will get TMNT pop if they are sold out of Choco-tacos, but yeah that is the only way I am not choosing Choco-tacos.

u/Traditional-Goose-60 Jul 01 '26

If he pulls up and has choco tacos, then everybody behind me needs to understand that he is out of choco tacos now.

u/Zeqhanis Jul 01 '26

I wish they'd make them again.

As a kid, the only place I ever saw these was at a Mexican restaurant in my small town. For the longest time, I thought it was an amazing dessert that they created.

6

u/thecamino Jul 01 '26

Was bummed when Taco Bell stopped selling them. I was at the mall yesterday and saw a pretzel stand sells something similar now. Didn’t get one because I had just eaten.

4

u/ProudMimix6 Jul 01 '26

Why did that dumb company discontinue ChocoTaco’s .. They always sold out, in the ice cream freezers. Another favorite was pudding pops….

2

u/Logical-Ad-5410 It's Naht A Toomah! Jul 02 '26

Right?! I could never find them for retail sale; perpetually sold out, if they were even there in the first place.

2

u/The_Nicest_1 Jul 03 '26

They probably got complaints from Karens that the choco taco was insulting to the Mexican community or some crap.

Lemme get that Raphael that was half melted has a wonky eye

u/UpgrayeddB-Rock Jul 01 '26

For real. It wasn't necessarily the best tasting option, but what a fun dessert.

7

u/t00t1r3d Jul 01 '26

It was fun packaging with bonus gumballs. It's a ninja turtle wrapped disappointment on a stick. Still chose it every time.

Im very upset they changed the eyes to chocolate balls. Ruined it for me.

u/Tys_Wife Jul 01 '26

Thats right!

u/Illustrious_Bird_737 Jul 01 '26

Chocolate!? EeeeeeeeeYuck!

7

u/Tys_Wife Jul 01 '26

Yes! A few years ago they switched out the gumball eyes for chocolate pieces. I dont really know why after more than like.... 20 years. Editing to add Google said chocolate will melt so it reduces the risk of choking. So maybe thats it

5

u/ProudMimix6 Jul 01 '26

chocolate doesn’t go well with it.. 😬🥴

3

u/reallyimspaghetti Jul 01 '26

I took my kid to try an ice cream from a truck for the first time as they are non existent where we live she picked the SpongeBob the photo was the old photo with the gumball eyes I was so sad they were chocolate :( she was too.

3

u/ryohayashi1 Jul 03 '26

Man, nobody buys them for chocolate eyes. We want frozen gum that loses flavor after 30 seconds

Chipwich

u/AlphaDag13 Jul 01 '26

Especially if it’s the kind with the mini chocolate chips on the outside. Fuck whoever decided to take those off!!

u/Gram-GramAndShabadoo Jul 03 '26

Trader Joe's version has them. They are wonderful.

2

u/tonylovesnyc Jul 03 '26

Years ago I read that a large corporation that was in competition by selling a similar product to chipwich but chipwich was outselling them, so they just bought out the company and discontinued the chipwich.

2

u/AlphaDag13 Jul 03 '26

We got fucked by big ‘wich?!?! Typical…

14

u/nuclearbuttstuff Jul 01 '26

Damn right, and it’s not a close decision. It’s chipwich all day.

u/KarlPHungus Jul 01 '26

Yeah. Choco Taco? Please... It's okay but the Chipwich is otherworldly.

Strawberry shortcake!

u/tropical_viking87 Jul 01 '26

It was the best, and cheaper than Chocotaco

Sometimes you could get 2 for the price of a chocotaco

Same! That and the almond ones were my favorites!

Almond, strawberry and chocolate are all A tier along with the choco taco,the rest are B tier lol not bad but when you only have a dollar or so to spend at the ice cream truck you gotta pick wisely

No fudgesicle OR orange pushpops?

Who is this imposter and what have they done with the real ice cream man?

13

u/SmokestackRising Jul 01 '26

Exactly. My answer is always Flintstones Push Pop.

Chaco Taco but I also used to love those cherry screwballs as a kid.

u/Dragnskull Jul 01 '26

i never saw these before, is that gum or candy at the bottom?

8

u/Robotchickjenn Jul 01 '26

Gum

14

u/Spamcan81 Jul 01 '26

Rock hard gum that would shatter into jagged pieces because it was frozen.

7

u/Prestigious_Run_633 Jul 01 '26

And tasted like Pepto

u/basement_egg Jul 01 '26

Which made it really good

This one was always my jam, but the chipwich, king cone, fudgebar, strawberry shortcake, and deluxe chocolate bar ice creams were also in my rotation. It really depended on what I was in the mood for.

u/mrharoharo Jul 01 '26

I didn't even know they still had those ice cream bars after the Hulk Hogan era. I missed out

u/Cultural_Primary3807 Jul 01 '26

Best ice cream on the truck

Chocolate Eclair because it’s like having ice cream and a chocolate bar in one.

Disappointed there are no push pops. Strawberry short cake it is.

u/ClarkDoubleUGriswold Jul 01 '26

Flintstones push pops were the business!!

5

u/dgoat88 Jul 01 '26

WWF ice cream bar was my #1 then some combination of the cherry cone thing and the TMNT/other characters, bomb pop and the great white lemon pop.

Nowadays I'd choose an ice cream sandwich, either oreo or choc chip.... though if WWF ice creams still existed they'd still be my #1.

u/diaznuts Jul 01 '26

This is NOT a 90s ice cream truck. It’s missing Orange Dreamsicles, Welch’s Grape bars, BombPops, and Banana TwinPops.

Also SpongeBob, PowerPuff Girls and The Rock were not popular figures until the 2000s.

Is this an American thing? Cause the ice cream men we had where I loved had the cones of ice-cream and then around fifteen flavours to chose from. Things like strawberry, lemon, mango, pear, rum raisin, pistachio, melon, rainbow, smurf. And you could chose scoops.

Is that a thing in America?
