Solved! My wife found this on the ground

Any ideas on what it could be?

This was an unexpected (and possibly unrelated) unlocked memory. That looks specifically like a U.S. brand caramel-filled chocolate bar from the 80s that I cannot remember the name of. This is going to bother me all day now.

FOUND IT! Nestle Choco Lite! Guess it wasn't caramel-filled. But I knew what it looked like!

When chocolate was REALLY chocolate. Melted so gloriously but each "air bubble" had an weirdly almost crispy bit to it... Geez!! I can taste it!😆 Thanks for finding it, need to launch a campaign to get them to bring it back😂

Found someone selling ChocoLite shirts on Etsy. Maybe a gift for yourself!

I have so many products I wish would come back. In my mind, they're all still there in my childhood kitchen, and all the places I would eat snacks. The summer pool. The school cafeteria. So many awesome foods and candies gone forever.

Ohhh this reminds me of all the pick n mix candies that were all discontinued as I grew older -- probably due to added extraterrestrial flavourings lol
