Topic: Planters P.B. Crisps

[Flame]

Who remembers those? They were cookie peanuts filled with peanut butter.

I remember those things from my childhood. And every time I eat a Nutterbutter Im reminded of how much of a crappier version Nutter Butters are in comparison with that old treat, which was discontinued for God knows what reason. (listed on Wikipedia as being discontinued for "being too delicious")

I miss those P.B. crisps.

Anyone else feel the same way?

[Quickman]

God, those things were awesomely good.  Planters needs to bring those back.  Nothing else compares to the deliciousness of those.

Dammit, now I'm hungry.  I'm gonna go eat peanut butter from the jar with a spoon.

[Acid]

Don't know them.

Probably America exclusive.

Are they made of PB?

[Flame]

PB inside a cookie shell.

PB suuure tastes good.

actually a petition to bring them back.

cookie peanuts

I say...

[Flame]

No joke, Bro.

[ZeroCracked]

Dang. These sound good? What year were they? 'Cuz being a '96 kid, I've probably never heard of them, which I haven't.

[CephiYumi]

Those... look good o.o  I think I missed out on them but they look familiar.  I was going to say "I assume they taste like nutter butters?" but apparently they are better?  Hmmm, nutter butters are good though

[Quickman]

They're crispier and the peanut butter was better.  They were delicious.

Hm... Wilkes-Barre, home of Planters, is only about 3 hours from me, roughly.  Who wants to join me in storming the main headquarters?

[Dantonumanoa Ongdolota Amycronicon]

No joke, Bro.

Oh [parasitic bomb].
THOSE.

I wanted those so bad when I was younger.
Too bad my folks were dirt poor that time.

They were around during the mid 90's I know that much.

[Quickman]

They vanished around the late 90s.  Such a shame. 

[ZeroCracked]

Ah, then I was too young to remember them. I hate my early childhood now, thanks a lot guys.

[Flame]

Not your fault, bro. You just werent born early enough.

[Acid]

Maybe P.B. crisps were made too early?

[Flame]

Perhaps, Acid.
Perhaps.

Or, perhaps P.B. Crisps were discontinued too early.

[Police Girl]

Late 90's is when they were discontinued? Wouldn't know them then. As they were canned in probably '97 or '98, when I was still a wee lad.

This gives me a wonderful idea, Perhaps we can shift this topic into a topic of Discontinued food (or drink) items we miss?

[CephiYumi]

In the late 90's I was in my late teens

*sigh* ^^;

[Flame]

In the late 90's I was in 3rd-4th grade. I really only ate them a few times, sadly. I recall them being either expensive, or elusive. I know my mom would buy them occasionally, and store the package out of my reach. When she brought them out, we ALL dug in.

[Jericho]

Holy [parasitic bomb] I remember these!

Holy [parasitic bomb] they were tasty as [tornado fang]!

HOLY [parasitic bomb], they got recalled? =(

Actually, Kallen, that's not a bad idea.

[CephiYumi]

Hmmm, Crunchy M&Ms were good, still not really sure why they discontinued them o.o

Aren't M&M's already crunchy enough? PEANUT, PEOPLE.

[CephiYumi]

Not the same kind of crunch ^^;  It was more like Crunch Bar quality crunch
and oops they were called "Crispy" o.o
