Discontinued snack from 19 years ago found in grandma's freezer

An Aussie food lover has made a fun discovery in their grandmother's freezer a Yoplait Go-GURT from 2006.

They shared their find on Reddit's 'Australian Nostalgia' thread.

"I found a Gogurt from 2006 in my grandma's freezer," the wrote.

"It tasted exactly like I remembered. There's still one left. I want to eat it but I'm sad that it's the last one."

The later added in the comments: "I ate one and it tasted great. Exactly like I remembered.

"I decided to save the last one for my 40th birthday in 10 years."

The Go-GURT pictured is apricot flavoured and the expiration date reads January 27, 2006.

These products were a staple in kids' lunchboxes in the early 2000s but were equally enjoyed by adults.

Many parents would freeze the yoghurt pouches, which served to create an extra frosty treat, or to ensure they remained cold during hotter days at school.

The most famous advertising campaign for the snack advised customers to: "Rip their heads off and suck their guts out."

"God I wish they'd bring them back," one Redditer lamented.

"Same I could smash an entire box now as an adult and no one could stop me! Instead of poor parents counting how many are gone from the box 'WHO'S TAKEN A GO GURT WITHOUT ASKING!?!?'" another added.

"Remember how warm they were by the time you got to them at lunch," one said.

"You managed to wait that long? mine were gone at recess if they managed to make it to school at all," another said.

"My mum refused to buy them and I was always so jealous of my friends, I loved them so much. Those and time out bars are all I want back," another said.

"Omg I used to eat these like everyday in primary school," added another.

"I can't believe they got rid of them," one Redditor said.

Yogurt reportedly discontinued the dairy treats in Australia as local tastes switched to Greek-yoghurt-style products, although they are still reportedly available overseas.

Go-GURT launched in America before moving to Canada, Britain, Ireland and then Australia. They were known as Frubes overseas.

Yoplait has since launched yoghurt pouches including YOP in probiotics and no sugar varieties, Petit Miam pouches aimed at kids.

Niamh Farrell, Marketing Manager at Bega Group told 9honey that while Go-GURT "had its moments", the decision was ultimately made to discontinue the range in 2013.

"Oh, the good old days of Yoplait Go-GURT, the undisputed MVP of school lunchboxes - fun, quirky, and an absolute favourite for many Aussies in the early 2000s!" Farrell said in a statement.

"Whether you were expertly squeezing every last drop or struggling to rip one open without a yoghurt explosion, Yoplait Go-GURT had its moments.

"In 2013, we waved goodbye to the original Yoplait Go-GURT tubes and transitioned to the yoghurt pouch format we know and love today, way easier to open, with minimal mess.

"Let's be honest, the original Go-GURT tubes were a blast (and yes, sometimes a little messy), but those moments when you couldn't quite rip the top off? Definitely not a kid-friendly feat!"

Farrell said after switching to the "pouch format" the company had to "say goodbye" once and for all to the Yoplait Go-GURT range in all it's forms in in 2016.

"But don't fret – we totally get how much Aussies loved that nostalgic Go-GURT magic, and we're still bringing the joy to snack time through our Yoplait yoghurt range," Farrell added.

"Enter Yoplait Petit Miam and Yoplait YOP Pouches – both approved by Mums and the toughest lunchbox critics around! We recommend trying out our new Petit Miam No Added Sugar range available in both strawberry and vanilla flavours."
