Thank you Daily Ping -- and fellow ChocoLite lovers! My father would buy ChocoLite's for us every once in a while. They were ALWAYS my favorite! He would also buy a bag of the small ones (like "fun size" before there was a "fun size") and keep them in the pantry tucked inside the yellow metal cabinet above the big counter. The little ones consisted of 2 of the squares and were wrapped and sold in a bag. I have read in several of the previous posts that people describe the design on the chocolate as a sea shell...I always thought it was a half of a wagon wheel. Oh well...Anyways, sometimes at night if I couldn't sleep I would come downstairs and my father would take me into the kitchen. He would disappear into the pantry for a moment and reappear with a little ChocoLite for me and one for him. We would sit at the kitchen table and quietly eat our beloved treats! He would ask me if I would be able to get to sleep? I would assure him that I would. Then I would say thank you to my Dad, give him a hug and a kiss and run back upstairs and hop into bed feeling like we had just completed some sort of secret mission for the government or something! It was like it was our little thing that we would do. I dont think my mom even knew that the ChocoLites were up in that cabinet! I am certain that she could not have reached them even if she did know! I think about those times often. My dad would suprise my sister and me with a ChocoLie from the store every once in a while. I always loved them. So fun to eat! I forever will associate ChocoLite's with wonderful times with my Father. I miss them both very very much. Thank you for sharing your memories. I have enjoyed reading them.
