The one I miss the most is the Nestle Choco'Lite. What an amazing chocolate bar. I don't know how they did it but they made those air bubble feel like chips in your mouth.
I actually remember looking for that candy bar in the store after it was discontinued. I even had my spouse searching registers/check-out lanes with me! I was so disappointed.
Nestle actually later made another chocolate candy bar that's like the Choco'Lite that's called Areo. IDK if Aero's are still around though. I just discovered it on Google when I was looking for another chocolate candy bar that I remembered was made that's like Choco'Lite. Which the 1 I was looking for is by Hershey's & is called the Hershey's Air Delight.

@@MichaylaLovesJesus83 ~ I remember hearing the name Areo, but can't say that I remember Hershey's Air Delight. Thanks for the heads-up! I'll have to look into those!
The name Seven Up was bought by 7UP for $6 Million in the 1990s, I'm not sure why the candy company just didn't change the name of that candy bar after that, the original name of 7UP soda was“Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda (1929) and it wasn't until 1936 it was re-named “7-Up” (Which was after the Seven Up candy bar).
Actually, Reggie Bars come back from time to time. Apparently, the Reggie Bar is sort of a basic candy bar recipe for bars bearing the images of athletes in a given market. In the 90's, here in Pittsburgh, we had Mario Bars, with a picture of Mario Lemieux on the wrapper, and when I tried one, my first thought was "This is exactly like a Reggie Bar." Within the past 10 years or so, there was a limited edition "Brady Bar," with Tom Brady on the wrapper, and IT was exactly the same as the Reggie and Mario Bars. Power House bars were awesome. So were Milk Shake bars. I remember when Milk Shake bars were part of a whole line of candy bars made by the Hollywood Candy Co. They made Hollywood Bars, Milk Shakes, Zero and Pay Day bars, and I think there were 2 or 3 others. As far as I can tell, the only ones still being made are Zero and Pay Day....Zero Bars and Clark Bars are my favorites.
~ Yeah, in my research I found that the Reggie bar had already been on the market, but called something else (can't remember the name) & it get's "brought back" a lot... with another name. I don't remember having a Clark bar, but I do remember the Zero's. They were white, right? If that's right, then I liked 'em! LOL
When I was a kid, my parents were fans of Hollywood candy bars. My father's favorite was PayDay. My mother favored Milk Shake. In addition to Milk Shake, I liked Big Pay and Payday. My parents said that the Hollywood candy bars tasted far better than candy bars today. It was awful that this line of candy bars went under, except for PayDay and Zero.
~ Too cute! I hope you enjoyed the video in spite of the craving activation! Oh, and... don't forget to grab yourself a Kit Kat today! Thanks for watching!
~ I was an Alpine White fan, too! I was sooooo disappointed when I couldn't find them anywhere. Oddly enough, I don't even remember the Powerhouse bar...
The Alpine White Bar from Nestle was amazingly good, but I'm sure it was discontinued due to melting issues. It melted quickly. Flavor wise it tasted very much like Lindt White Chocolate Truffles.
~ Somehow, I never had a Choco Lite! It would seem that I missed out! The one that I miss is the Alpine White, but there's plenty of white chocolate candy bars now so it's all good LOL
Does anyone remember the Cinnamon Danish Bars? I loved those! They were a 70's candy bar. White chocolate, crispy center with a cinnamon swirl. Made by Nielson.
~ My guess would be that the company that made them was sold & the new owners discontinued it so it wouldn't compete with something of theirs that was similar. That seems to happen a lot, even when a product is popular
~ I never tried a Milkshake 😢. From this video, I loved the Alpine White, then the Reggie. I had to be in the mood for the Marathon, but when I was, I loved 'em.
@@60s70s80sNostalgia In my youth in the 1970 they cost .25 cent I would buy 2 a snickers .25 cent and 2 packs of now&laters and have a nickle to spare for penny candy😁
I used to love the Seven Up bar (How did they not get sued with that name , though?), but , in my day , it was 7 candy fillings laid out horizontally , one by one. Choco'Lite was another favorite. That , and Milkshake.
~ Thanks for watching, I truly appreciate it! ~ I do believe that part of the reason the 7up bar was discontinued was due to "copywrite infringement" litigation.

@@60s70s80sNostalgia Alpine White wasn't my favorite , but , I agree , they were really good. The best candy bars get discontinued.

I just saw an ad for it from 1959 , so , they tried them out on the general market more than once.
@@jose.luis.ayala. Thanks for the tip. I will look out for them. When they were new , I remember some reps came to a club I was at to promote the Milky Way Midnight bars. They asked me how likely I was to buy them , and I said I already do ! They took my picture and put it up on their website.
Never even heard of Seven Up Bars until I went away to college, (1973) and they were in the vending machine in our lounge. Sky Bars were a similar confection, but it had only 5 different fillings. Both were pretty good.
The Seven Up was among my favorites. It had seven different flavors in just one candy bar. It was a real winner if I was in the mood for multiple flavors. I didn't have to buy several different candy bars in order to get the flavors. Seven Up had them all in one bar.
I love the jingle alphine 4:45 Any jingle that can sing the spelling of it brand name without sounding corny gets big props from me! The smoothness, the flow of the lyrics makes you wonder if the jingle was better than the actual product itself!
@@60s70s80sNostalgia Over the years since the Reggie Bars came out, I have noticed that any time there is a candy bar featuring an athlete on the wrapper, it's really a Reggie Bar inside. In the 90's in Pittsburgh, we had Mario Bars, featuring a picture of Mario Lemieux on the wrapper...same as a Reggie Bar. I've also since see one with Tom Brady on the wrapper....also same as a Reggie Bar.
You can find them labeled as Bun bars, a bit hard to find, but still around. They come in caramel, which was identical to the Reggie bar, but also vanilla, and the best, maple.
I really want Nestle Alpine White to come back and be a permanent candy bar because I can't stop thinking about it every single day, I have craving for it ever since and I need it in my life and I don't want it to be discontinued anymore.
~ I hear ya! I remember running up & down the checkout lines looking for them. Was soooooo disappointed when I figured out that they'd been discontinued!
RiffTrax aired the "Reggie" commercial during "The Star Wars Holiday Special". The joke made in that commercial: "I wonder why they never made an Albert Pujols candy bar?"
You can get some similar candy now... Cadbury's Curly Wurly is similar to, though smaller than the marathon bar & Reese's Sticks are similar to Summit, but has peanut butter and no chopped peanuts. I think neither is as good as the originals, but they're still pretty good.
Thanks for your input! All 3 of those candy bars are still made. According to my research, Chunky can still be bought in store at a some retailers. Bar None, which was relaunched in 2019, & Zero can be purchased on line from candy sellers, by the case. I've read that the Bar None of today isn't as good as the original. All 3 are available on Amazon. When I do my research, I'm constantly surprised at what is still being made And at what things have been discontinued, that I thought were still around!
Chunky still exists, but it's not the same. It used to have cashews and Brazil nuts & raisins, but now it's only peanuts & raisins (the change happened in the 1980's). I still like it, but the originals were so much better!
~ After the factory 🏭 burned to the ground Hollywood wasn't able to rebuild. But in 1988 another company - Leaf something or other - bought the rights & they made their version of the Milkshake bar until 1996, at which time they were bought by Hershey who then discontinued everything except for the Zero & Payday Candy bars. ~ Sorry about the confusion! This is one of my first videos & I hadn't figured out what information should be squeezed into each 30 to 60 second window. And for some reason that I don't remember, I only went to when the original company discontinued them. I now I go as far as my research takes me! ~ Thanks for watching & leaving a comment!
When I was a kid, Milk Shake was my favorite of the Hollywood candy bars. Big Time, Butternut, Big Pay, and Pay Day are the ones I remember the best. It's a good thing Pay Day survived. It was my late father's favorite candy bar.
When I was a kid, we had Snik-Snak bars in our neighborhood stores, but not Kit-Kat. The first time I saw a commercial for Kit-Kat, I thought they were a rip-off from Snik-Snak, but it was the other way around! I also remember the Reggie bar. When I first tried one, I noticed it was remarkably similar to a Baby Ruth and Oh Henry. I thought, "Is this the way they make all candy bars that are named after ballplayers?" LOL!!! Yes, I know the Baby Ruth candy bar was not really named after the Bambino, but I didn't know that then. 🙂
~ Great commentary! I'd never ever heard of Snik-Snaks until I came across the commercial! And I agree, the Reggie "bar" was like a flattened Baby Ruth
@@60s70s80sNostalgia I just learned on another video that the Oh! Henry! bar wasn't named after Henry Aaron. My earliest memories of that candy bar are from the commercials in the early 1970's that featured Aaron, so I just assumed it was named after him. Another childhood illusion destroyed! 😪
~ The best that I can figure on the fly is that they are no longer produced in Canada. It's now only manufactured in the UK, where they have always been sold by the name Curly Wurly.
