Worst example for me are these little stick-less ice cream thingies
I loved them as a kid (hate the feeling of biting wooden sticks), and then they suddenly vanished. Now I’ve finally found them again, but they’re prohibitively expensive.
Isn’t a Klondike® Bar just an older Statesian version of a Eskibon? \s
But yeah, they’re the same thing. The parent company for both is Unilever, so they could even have some kind of patent/trademark sharing thing going on.
Do you have any eastern European grocers near you? They should sell frozen cheesecake bars that might scratch that itch, looks like these though you might have to settle for lithuanian ones if you’re in a country that sanctions Russia
I’m in South America, so it’s pretty hard to find anything European here.
These ice cream cubes are produced nationally, so I suppose it’s just a resource allocation problem. The box one seem pretty great for the environment btw, the only trash they generate is a small cardboard box.
I’ve never had the stickless kind, but I’m kinda with you I hate the wooden stick. I don’t like biting into it. I don’t like licking it. It makes it so I get melted ice cream all over my fingers because it slowly drips down the stick. Down with sticks.
Every fucking time.

Isn’t that just a Klondike bar in a slightly different shape?
