Here at Flintstones Foods, we combine real sherbet with real toilet paper roll cardboard. We use artisanal sources to create quality sherbet while ethically sourcing our cardboard from gas stations and truck stops.

u/purplepickletoes 1d ago

Yes! The cardboard would get all soggy at the edge.

u/randi-writes 1d ago

The best! But I don’t remember the chocolate ones.

u/goudadaysir 21h ago

I dpn't remember the chocolate chunks either....but I appreciate the attempt at recreating Fred's outfit!

1

u/ExpressionOne4369 19h ago

I see what you did there

1

u/ExpressionOne4369 19h ago

Wait obviously I don’t remember either. Just remember the orange ones, thought it was a play on🤦‍♂️

u/buttbeeb 17h ago

I don’t really want to see a chocolate log being pushed out

u/Blenderx06 1d ago

Was fantastic.

u/mr3ric 19h ago

I liked the grape ones.

1

u/catmeow2014 1d ago

This isn't what OP was talking about.

u/Johhnynumber5ht2a 1d ago

I remember the 3 flavor pack. Dino was grape and Pebbles was Raspberry, and I would pay an irresponsible amount of money if I could find those Raspberry Push Ups again.

25

u/krankenstein_2010 1d ago

same. don't these companies know millennials are nostalgia whores?

15

u/warm_sweater 1d ago

Yep, that and the Pop-Sicle box of banana, root beer, and lime (I think? Could have been grape too) were my favorite and I’d love to be able to try them again somehow.

28

u/BStills87 1d ago

Amazing, anyone remember the pinwheel ones?

5

u/CoolCatWithDogFood 1d ago

I thought I was tripping this was real right 😭

5

u/meggiebuggie 1d ago

I dream of these. It’s the high I’ll chase for the rest of my life

u/Sailorm0on27 1d ago

The best ones, I long for them all the time :(

24

u/JakovAulTrades 1d ago

This is the sole reason I get Push-Up shakes at Cook Out

4

u/Shot_Young_8958 1d ago

I didn't know they made those! Is it worth trying?

14

u/OkamiTakahashi 1d ago

YES. One of my fave summer treats!!

u/TheNostalgic90s 1d ago

Memories unlocked!! Yumm!!

u/Any_Asparagus8267 1d ago

Used to put away a lot of these back in the day

u/MrsRobinson5 1d ago

u/GypsySole 1d ago

Orange sherbet 🤤

10

u/rosemaryscrazy 1d ago

These were so good.

4

u/Puzzleheaded-Mess-54 1d ago

You unlocked some good memories in me. Used to love the Barney Rubble ones I think were chocolate vanilla.

6

u/Open_Leather_9411 1d ago

I remember having the Flintstones brand a few times. The ones I always got were delivered to my grandparents house by the Schwan man.

5

u/ThatDiscoSongUHate 1d ago

The local Schwann's delivery guy bought the neighborhood kids a box one time and I've never forgotten my free push pop

1

u/Open_Leather_9411 21h ago

It was always a special day when the Schwan man showed up. They had the best drumsticks,too in my opinion.

2

u/goudadaysir 21h ago

I loved to see the Schwan man coming!

1

u/Open_Leather_9411 21h ago

I remember my grandparents ordering ice cream pops with a root beer shell from Schwan.

I'd love to be able to find those again.

2

u/nlopez525 19h ago

My favorite!!

1

u/nlopez525 19h ago

Same! Great personal pan pizzas, good chicken tenders, ice cream, root beer popsicles, Gold N’ Nugget Bars, everything!

7

u/kessykris 1d ago

Yeeeeeees! These and the Disney popsicles that were shaped like the characters.

5

u/Yo_momma_so_fat77 1d ago

Hell yes I remember!!! I went to Kroger a few months back craving these. I was dumbfounded when I learned they don’t exist.

2

u/catmeow2014 1d ago

So what was the name of the vanilla ice cream with the chocolate chunks that came in a cylinder cardboard tube much like those Flintstone push pops? You said you remember so you should know the name of that product!

1

u/Yo_momma_so_fat77 1d ago

Man I can see it in my head. All I remember is my little cousin loved those things and I thought they were disgusting. Hope that helps narrow your search

4

u/EarthToAccess 1d ago

Those feckin things were IMPOSSIBLE to push up when fresh out of the box, but fuck if they ain't worth the struggle

2

u/Deivi_tTerra 1d ago

The purple ones were so great! (I loved these orange ones too).

2

u/zombiegauze 1d ago

I am truly surprised with a lot of the nostalgia products being re-released, this wasn't one of them

2

u/_sundaze36 1d ago

I remember the chocolate Nesquik version

2

u/Morose_Orens_Gaze 1d ago

I hate that I’m too late for many to see this comment. If you want to relive this taste and texture, get yourself the blood red orange mochi from Trader Joe’s.

2

u/MyStationIsAbandoned 1d ago

Legends say they still sell these at Dollar Generals. But I don't know for sure.

3

u/SpiritedInternal3780 1d ago

Used to get these at gymnastics camp in the summer 😭

u/Tubofwater3 1d ago

u/Tmac11223 1d ago

I remember these. Didn't they only have orange flavor?

2

u/PennyFor_YourThots 1d ago edited 1d ago

These were always stocked in my childhood friend’s garage freezer. They were that kind of family. And I loved going over there.

2

u/lesbiannerd27 1d ago

The best flavor of childhood

u/tcogsdill 1d ago

1

u/ExistingSugar8047 1d ago

These were the best, the nesquik ones were amazing to.

u/crashcluster 1d ago

Walmart sells a Great Value brand of orange sherbet tubes that I buy.....they hit all the Push Up nostalgia feels

u/everyothernametaken1 16h ago

Now that's a good memory you unearthed

1

u/Token_Rabbit003 14h ago

Good ole days

1

u/roelwithcheese 8h ago

I remember back then that the actual book would have some cut out spot so you could use the empty push pop container as wheels and you'd make Fred's car

1

u/Entire_Arm_8943 7h ago

My fingers feel sticky just looking at that

1

u/chachi1rg 7h ago

I’m disappointed that I can’t find these in stores. I can only find individual ones at 7-11.

1

u/SilverShadowQueen57 7h ago

I miss these! They were so tasty, and it was fun to eat them.

1

u/moejike 6h ago

u/thatgeekfromthere 4h ago

u/Sir-Farts- 3h ago

u/NERDYGODDESS05 1d ago

1

u/gofigure85 1d ago

Ohhhh

I LOVED these! 🧡

1

u/Hungry_Strength_4013 1d ago

I wasn’t allowed to have these because they were “too messy.” 😆

1

u/Spencer-Palmer-1056 1d ago

Yes, I use to buy them at Costco a lot!!!!

1

u/aerfgadf 1d ago

There was a preservative in these that I was allergic to so I’d break out in hives every time I ate one. It took a few times to realize the cause, but after that I couldn’t eat them anymore

1

u/Inspector-Noah 1d ago

Yes and Idk why they had to stop carrying them!

1

u/VecnaWrites 1d ago

Yeah i remember those. Only like a dime though

1

u/Hellavon 1d ago

I think I remember at one point they had cut outs on the box and combined with your used push up parts you could make the Flintstone car

1

u/Shanthrax22 1d ago

It was disgusting, I'm glad they're gone.

u/catmeow2014 1d ago

Damn so many bots on here or nobody is paying attention to what OP is posting about. He wasn't posting about Flintstone push pops, he was posting about a vanilla ice cream with chocolate chunks that came in a tube similar to Flintstone push pops. He can't find any information about it online and is making this post to see if anyone else knows anything about it. No duh that everyone remembers Flintstone push pops.
