I've just received a message from Nestlé's regarding
Cho Chos.
I think if we can more people to write requesting the return of our favorite ice cream treat, perhaps it would happen.

I have talked about the Cho Cho bar for years! The only place that I
ever remember having it was at the lake we used to belong to.
Lakeland Acres in Cortland, NY) They were my absolute favorite!
Today, my husband and I stopped in our nearby Rite Aid where they
actually sell ice cream cones and cups! They had a Malted choco
crunch ice cream! OMG! It reminded me of the Cho Cho bars! Yum! I
will be returning to buy more asap! I'll skip the cone next time,
because it took away from the deliciousness! Maybe I'll get some to
take home! So much for my diet!

Dear Ms. DeMento,
Thank you for your email letting us know of your
disappointment in being unable to find
Nestlé® Carnation® Ice Cream at your local market. I
realize how frustrating it can be when you
can't find your favorite dessert treats.
Unfortunately, this particular product line has been
discontinued. Each year, we evaluate our
current flavors and products, adding some new ones
while discontinuing those that aren't selling
as well. We listen closely to our consumers and if we
hear from enough shoppers who share your
disappointment, we will certainly consider bringing
this product back into our line-up.
The specific recipe for this ice cream is proprietary
information, therefore we would be unable to
share it with you.
We appreciate your taking the time to contact our
company to let us know of your flavor
preference.
Sincerely,
Kimberley Jones
Consumer Response Representative

Hi Diana and all,
I'm brand spanking new to this site, so I haven't read all the other comments yet. What brought me to this site was that just a couple of days ago I was thinking back to my childhood and for some strange reason cho chos came to mind. From what I understand, all people as they get older have this thing about spending a lot of their time thinking good thoughts about things long ago. I know that as I get older, I do that. Well, when I was a child in Trumann, AR., my Dad owned a grocery store and I worked there quite a bit. Lots of times when things would be slow, Dad and I would take the time to eat some type of ice cream. Some of these were: Wonder Bars, Push Ups, Fudgecicles, Dreamcicles, Popcicles, and of course Cho Chos. I also remember that two brands of ice cream that we sold were Midwest and Sealtest. I can't remember if there were others. But, I do remember eating cho chos, so I suppose that one of these companies made them.

I have been looking for these for years..They used to be delivered via
ice cream truck in the 1950s..They were called CHO CHO POPS on
Long Island New York....They were a malted milk Ice cream bar that
was covered with a chocolate shell that had rice Krispy type things in
it...I have been looking for these for years....I have never seen the
other kinds you are talking about.. These were not in stores in New
York, only delivered by the ice cream man....

I have a friend who made Cho Cho's. They received the refrigerated liquid mix from St. Louis. He the just poured the liquid into the cups capped it with a stick and lid and placed the rack of one dozen into the freezer. This happened in Jackson, TN. in about 1956.
Yours,
JOEL

Hi folks,
I'm here to discuss Cho-Chos, somebody brought up old ice cream favorites on facebook and I thought about them, the search led me here and what a great thread it was. but I skimmed a little and will go back and see what I missed later.
Anyway I want to add what I have to offer to this topic.
My era of Cho-Chos was from approximately 1965 thru sometime in the 70s. My parents ran a country store which I later helped out at, and we had a selection of ice cream which included the Cho-Cho popsicles, the wrapper had some dark green in it, I can't seem to find a pic of it on the internet though. These popsicles were standard and not the ones depicted from the earlier days molded in a cup. It was the malted chocolate ice cream with a chocolate coating with crunchy bits. For years I have seen the various attempts at these by current brands but they often have vanilla ice cream, never have I tasted a similar one.
As for the pure chocolate malt in a cup, as I recall, the same vendor provided these, they were in a cup and were purely chocolate malt ice cream, I think they were just called Chocolate Malt Cup or something like that but weren't as good as Cho-Chos.
I'd love to both see a picture of the wrapper and have one again, somehow I find it hard to believe somebody somewhere isn't making them.

I too am part of the Spagnolo family of the former
Spagnolo Ice Cream Company in Harrisburg, PA. To give
just one example of how popular the Cho Cho's were here
in the 1950's, I will just tell you that a mention of
them, during a private conversation, at small grocery
store in Hershey last week, elicited comments from at
least 4 nearby shoppers. One women said, "Did you say
something about Cho Cho's? Where can I get some? I
haven't had one in years. They were my favorite."
