The Choco Taco has been discontinued after nearly 40 years of being sold in convenience stores and ice cream trucks nationwide.
The frozen dessert snack, which was made by Unilever subsidiary Klondike, consisted of vanilla ice cream, surrounded by a waffle cone taco shell and topped with chocolate shell and nuts.
Choco Taco fans were up in arms.
Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut joined in the furor with a tongue-in-cheek tweet: “Tomorrow I am introducing legislation to invoke the Defense Production Act to mandate the continued manufacture of Choco Tacos. Please call your Senator and demand they co-sponsor.
