However, others chimed in by writing how they didn’t mind never having a waffle taco-shaped ice cream ever again — or for the first time.

“I’m glad the choco taco is gone, it wasn’t even good,” one person tweeted.
One person was also skeptical about never seeing a Choco Taco ever again, writing , “Next summer, the choco taco will make a triumphant though limited time return.Then it will be back in trucks and freezer sections a few months later.We’ve done this a hundred times.I’m so exhausted.” Next summer, the choco taco will make a triumphant though limited time return.

The Choco Taco was invented by Alan Drazen in 1983, according to Eater.
It was first made available as an ice cream truck-only treat by Philadelphia company Jack & Jill before being owned by Unilever.
For a brief period, Choco Tacos were also sold at Taco Bell.
In February of this year, the fast-food chain re-partnered with Klondike to bring back the dessert for a limited time.
