The Imposters by Nabisco
Keebler French Vanilla Creme Cookies, the kind made by elves, was my all-time favorite cookie! Where are they?? It seems that they've not been around since the '70s??? I can't even find a photo of the package, even though I did a Google image search! Evidently no one out there is saving an unopened package for a future episode of Antiques Roadshow.
Is there anyone else who remembers Keebler French Vanilla Creme Cookies? Anyone else who still misses them? Anyone who knows why on earth Keebler would take them off the market?
Have you tried the Keebler Vienna Fingers? Are they as good? (Like I really need to find another cookie I like.)
And what about the windmill cookie? When I was little, it was one of my favorites too. I don't remember the brand. It had not only a great flavor, but a really good crunch and slivers of almonds (I think). When I was probably 10 years old, our family spent a few days at a resort and those cookies were sold at the little store near the lake. Maybe that's why they seemed to taste so good. Who knows. Alas, the windmill cookies I find now do not compare in taste, crunch, or thickness. I have become a windmill snob.
Are there any foods from your past that you miss? Am I the only one who longs for a cookie I shouldn't be eating anyway???
