No way! I haven't had them since I was like eleven, but their absence will leave an unfillable hole in my animal-shaped snack choices. Sigh.

You'll all forget about them, just like the telegram. Give it time.

i'm just surprised that they could sell off their brand and/or operations to some other company. That's a pretty well known name for a lot of folks

And I *might* forget about these but I will never never forget Mr. Bubble. He was my first love.

Well also, products have a habit of coming back again due to nostalgia. So it may not be the last hurrah, ever.

this is positively unacceptable. I downed an entire bag of these on the bus ride home from Pitchfork and I can tell you, it was JOYOUS. Even my seatmate got totally excited when I offered him some.

Too sad. They were nearly a hundred years old. Very few companies can say that, even if they were corporately owned.
At least you can still get archway molasses and the oatmeal ones aren't bad either.
And Voortman's- Those thin spicy windmills, with slivers of almond in them. Perfect with tea. Sigh.
