These Nostalgic Ice Cream Nuggets Were Sadly Left In The '90s, But We Want Them Back - Tasting Table
Briefly

The article reflects on the nostalgia for 1990s trends, particularly focusing on the Butterfinger Ice Cream Nuggets, which debuted in 1992. These bite-sized treats combined vanilla ice cream and chocolate coated with Butterfinger chunks but disappeared from shelves five years later. Enthusiastic fans express their longing for these snacks, sharing memories and frustrations on platforms like Reddit, underscoring their lasting impact. The article highlights how these once-popular treats are missed and hints at their potential appeal if reintroduced today.
When the '90s morphed into the 2000s, many of these things didn't make it past the turn of the century, though we'd wager that half of them would still be moderately popular today.
The nuggets were bite-sized chunks of vanilla ice cream coated in a layer of crunchy, Butterfinger-filled chocolate, typically in a pack of 20 pieces.
The history of Butterfinger Ice Cream Nuggets has all but faded from the internet, with barely a Google hit or information page.
Some '90s kids felt 'outraged' that they were discontinued and one Redditor went so far as to say that 'at some point they made life worth living.'
