Klondike Ice Cream Bar
The Klondike Original Ice Cream Bar is a hunk of creamy artificially flavored vanilla light ice cream covered in a thick milk chocolate flavored coating. Nestlé S.A. is the largest food company in the world, measured by revenue and other metrics, since 2014.
Choco Taco Discontinuation
"The overwhelming support for Choco Taco has certainly made us reconsider our long-term plans," Klondike said in a statement.
"While Klondike explained the decision, many online were still disappointed."
"The taco-shaped treat had vanilla ice cream in a waffle cone with chocolate and peanuts."
Ownership and Future of Choco Taco

Klondike Products Overview
"Over the past 2 years, we have experienced an unprecedented spike in demand across our portfolio and have had to make very tough decisions to ensure availability of our full portfolio nationwide. A necessary but unfortunate part of this process is that we sometimes must discontinue products, even a beloved item like Choco Taco."
The Choco Taco, made of ice cream, cone, chocolate and nuts, has been officially discontinued, Klondike wrote.
Klondike continues selling cones, shakes, and bars.
Unilever acquired Isaly Klondike Company in 1993. Unilever pushed up prices in the second quarter amid inflation.
Klondike may bring it back, realizing the decision was premature. If you want a Choco Taco, you’ll need to hustle for what’s left.
