EVERYONE has boasted a go-to order for the ice cream truck, but five favorites are no longer around.
Hearing the song from the ice cream truck slowly approaching your house was always exhilarating, no matter how often it came by.
There was nothing quite like being saved from the summer heat by a nice cold ice cream sandwich or snowcone.
But sometimes good things come to an end, and that includes our favorite ice cream treats.
The next time you hear Ring Around The Rosey or Pop Goes the Weasel, don't expect to see any of the folllowing ice cream products on the truck's menu.
1. CHOCO TACO
Last year, customers went into a frenzy trying to find the last few Choco Tacos after Klondike gave it the ax in July.

The treat had been around for nearly 40 years, earning a huge fanbase.
Klondike stated to CNN: "We know this may be very disappointing.
"Over the past 2 years, we have experienced an unprecedented spike in demand across our portfolio and have had to make very tough decisions to ensure availability of our full portfolio nationwide."
Fans loved the taco shell-shaped waffle cone that was stuffed with vanilla and fudge-swirled ice cream, topped with nuts, and dunked in chocolate.

2. FLINTSTONES PUSH-UP POPS
Many of us can still remember the delicious orange sherbet and the fun packaging that kept us, mostly, mess-free.
These pops became insanely popular after Nestle rebranded them to feature everyone's favorite prehistoric family.
Themed flavors like Yabba-Dabba-Do Orange, Lime Rock Lime, and Bedrock Berry were a huge hit for kids and adults alike.
While Fred, Wilma, and Barney are long gone from the packaging, you can still buy Nestle Push-Ups in new flavors. including Cherry Blast, Turbo Grape, and Outrageous Orange.
3. CANDY CENTER CRUNCH
For those of us who couldn't decide between a candy bar or an ice cream, this solved our problem.
The Good Humor ice cream bar featured a chocolate center wrapped in vanilla ice cream, dipped in a chocolate and crispy rice coating.
Although it's long gone, you can request the item on Good Humor's website and let the company know you're hoping for a comeback.
4. BUBBLEGUM SWIRL
Another gem from Good Humor was the Bubblegum Swirl, which looked just as good as it tasted.
The pop had blue and pink swirls and tasted just like a gumball, but you didn't have to worry about it running out of flavor.
If you'd like to relive just a little bit of the nostalgia, you can buy one of the decals that were on the side of the ice cream truck on eBay for just $7.
5. SPRINKLERS
This may have been the most simple but delicious ice cream bar available.
It was vanilla ice cream dipped in chocolate and covered in what seemed like a billion sprinkles.
In hopes of getting Sprinklers back, fans started a petition, which earned more than 1,300 signatures.
"These were my favorite growing up and I would give anything to bring them back," one person wrote.
Another added; "I’m 32 now and literally just asked my sister where this stuff went. So I Googled it and hell yea we need these again."
GOOD NEWS COMING
There are still some new ice cream innovations being made every day.
Last month, Baskin-Robbins revealed the Chick’n & Waffles ice cream flavor.
There is no real chicken in the ice cream, but you'll still get the great savory taste combined with the sweetness of buttermilk waffles.
The ice cream comes on top of crispy chicken- and waffle-flavored bites drizzled in a “decadent” bourbon maple syrup flavored swirl.
“This flavor is a frozen twist on the iconic brunch dish, recreated in a deliciously deconstructed concept that is unique to our shops," Hannah Suits, Director of Brand Marketing for Baskin-Robbins, said in a statement.
