Description
Nabisco use to make these cookies which were very delicious but for some reason stopped making them. They were wafers covered with caramel and chocolate and had nuts on the top. I think I'm missing another ingredient but they were delicous.

I think that was all of the ingredients but I'm like you I grew up on those cookies and I loved them, and now, of course, you can't buy them anymore! They always seem to take away the good stuff! Sometimes they need to just leave a good thing alone, don't you all agree?

They were Keebler cookies - yummy - I bought some fudge covered wafer bars from Safeway for $1.50 and put crunchy peanut butter on them.... I have looked for years - they were like crack cocaine. I may have to beg Keebler to make them again.... maybe get the MoveOn.org people involved? A march on Washington?

Finally someone who knows what I am talking about. I loved these cookies, they were the best ever. But of course they discontinued them they discontinue every thing that I like. I have come to believe I am the kiss of death for products. If I like it then it will soon disappear off the shelves. I do remember these used to only be out in the winter along with the pinwheel cookies I guess because the ingredients melted in the heat. Come back Heydeys we love you!!!!!!

I remember eating Heydey cookies when I was younger. They were so wonderful. I didnt even realize they were acutally gone until I found this site. I do wish they would bring them back, the were my favoirte in the world and I want to share them with my granddaughters.

I am a former Nabisco employee. Their slogan should be: "We'll sell less and less of more and more until we nothing left to sell." They are probably the least marketing savy food producer on the face of the Earth because they rely on the Bean Counters to determine what and how things will be sold.

The Heyday is by far the best packaged cookie ever made. I'm sorry Jerry, but I disagree that they are just like Samoa; certainly similar consistency. BRING BACK THE HEYDAY!!!

HeyDays were the best. my favorite treat. i would nibble the nuts off of them individually just to prolong the pleasure of eating these cookie bars. those layers! that crunch! the chewiness! if they were made today, would they still be as good? and what if they made a version using dark chocolate only and sunflower kernels instead of nuts (now that i am allergic to cow casein and tree nuts)?

I wish Nabisco would bring these cookies back! I would buy cases of them. I can't believe they were discontinued! Imagine THAT? What were they thinking? I would like to know??? My grandmother would purchase them. She got me hooked. I would always stay with my grandparents in their trailer house at the lake or hot springs. It makes me sad. I would like to share them with my grandchildren when we take trips in the trailer. Great Memories! Please bring them back!!! They need a new public relations rep...

I'm with everyone else. I miss those cookies. I feel that Nabisco's decision to quit making the HeyDey Bars as one of the biggest blunders in cookie making history. We should organize an internet email campaign to bring back the HeyDey Bar. If it can work for saving TV shows, then why not for our favorite cookie?

I just put in a request today to The Vermont Country Store to ask Nabisco to bring them back!! Nabisco claims that there weren't enough consumers to continue the product!! FAQ Home - Nabisco Product Questions Are some of the older Nabisco snack products still available? We still carry a wide variety of snack products that were originally under the Nabisco label. There are some types of snacks that have been discontinued. There were not enough consumers buying the products to support its continued production. The following is a list of snacks that we most commonly receive questions about, and have been discontinued: NABISCO AMERICAN FRIES NABISCO CHIPPERS NABISCO CHIPSTERS NABISCO CHIT CHAT NABISCO DIP IN A CHIP NABISCO FLINGS NABISCO HEYDAY BARS NABISCO KENNEDY'S SPECIAL COMMONS NABISCO LIL' LOAF NABISCO MEAL-MATES NABISCO NUTTER BUTTER GRANOLA BARS NABISCO SHAPIES NABISCO TUNA TWIST PLANTER'S TAVERN NUTS SNACKWELL'S BROWNIE MIX

I just went to the Vermont Country Store, where they pride themselves on resurrecting defunct products so much, they have a form you can fill out to request something you miss. I took a form to fill out for Hey Deys, and googled them just wanted to be sure they were really gone. I can't believe so many other people miss them too! My friend Ruth's mom would buy them, and I was always afraid she'd be mad that we ate so many (I think there were only twelve in the tray). I actually remember them from the 70's. Anyway, everyone contact the Vermont Country Store, they have a way getting requests filled, and they have a website!

Best cookie ever! I couldn't believe it when I could no longer find them. Nabisco never advertised them - no wonder they didn't have enough people purchasing them.

My daughter and I were just talking the other day about how no cookie will ever compare to the Heyday Bars. I thought it would be fun to google Heyday and I am so happy to see that we are not the only ones despartley wishing they would bring them back. Come on Nabisco, bring back the Heyday Bars for all people out there that love them and those who have never had them. The Girl Scout version is a very dissapointing tease to the real thing. And please don't change anything about the old ones if they do come back. Blueberry Morinings cereal by Post has never been the same since they changed the flakes.

My sister Robyn Ashby and I use to go from Rio Linda (N.California) to Anahiem in the late 60's early 70's to visit my grandmother on the grayhound bus and we would have the Heyday bars with us. What a treat. Years later when our family had a month long camping trip I found the Heyday bars in South Dakota and that was in 1988 but i have not been able to find them since and I have been looking every where. PLEASE PLEASE NABISCO bring back this delicious treat with the caramel, nuts, chocolate, wafers that is so wonderful. It is by far the best cookie i have ever tasted. Please let us go back to our childhood and reminince....Let us give our grandchildren some parts of our past to taste. PLEASE. NABISCO YOU ARE THE BEST COOKIE MAKING COMPANY YOU CAN DO THIS...we love you....Shelly

Heyday Cookies were the best. I'm sure they stopped making them because they were too good, i.e., cost too much for what they could sell them for. I just emailed Kraft Nabisco about it. You can too, at: http://www.kraftfoodscompany.com/Contacts/contact-us.aspx

Nothing like them - period. My wife and kids still talk about my love affair with Heydeys and every delicious word of it is true! As screwed up as this world is today a lot could be said and done for just a few moments of solitude with a few Heydeys and a cold glass of milk. You can have all the rest of everything.

I just emailed Nabisco. Seriously...I am sure they can make them and make a profit at it. And I know people would buy them! There is nothing out there like it! And as I recall, they were a real treat, because even back then, you got less cookies for the price. They were kinda expensive, as I recall. But oh, so worth it!! I still dream about them. And then wake up...and cry. Maybe we should petition Nabisco!!

Heydays were the best cookie bar ever invented. I contacted Nabisco several years ago asking about these bars and was told there weren't enough requests for heydays to make it worthwhile to continue producing. I think this website for one shows that people still want them. What does a person have to do to convince the company to bring back an old favorite?!!

December 1979 Senior Class Christmas Party, everybody brought something for a potluck type feed. My cousin brought a package of Heyday cookies, first time I ever had them. Can still taste them, playing the game "Probe", The Eagles "Greatest Hits 1971-75" playing on the cassette player ...

Walked the aisle in the local store and, even though I knew they weren't there, spent time searching every shelf. The whole time telling my girlfriend how awesome these were when I was a kid and my mom bought them. Now, at 36, they are a distant memory. Something that will always stay in my mind, like Christmas, or spending my youth at the pool. NEED THEM BACK. Surely someone knows somebody at Nabisco. All it takes is that someone showing links like this. Hell, Everything is "coming back".....How about some "throwback" discontinued brands.

For some reason, I started thinking about HeyDey bars and wondered what ever happened to them, so I googled and found this great site. My mom used to buy them from our little hometown grocery store and I would sneak them and hide out and eat them when I was a little girl.

Loved them and still miss them! I can remember back when they started becoming harder to find, and were fairly expensive compared to other packaged cookies back then(I think I remember them getting to about $4, and this was 20 yrs ago). Being in the service and traveling around quite a bit, I'd always check grocery stores for them, and thought that perhaps it was a regional issue when I couldn't find them. I guess now that they were slowly dying out? You'd get to the end of the package and have all those little, loose nuts to pour into your mouth. Like others have said, to me it was really more like a candy bar than a cookie. I'd definitely buy them at about any price if they were brought back.

I wish everyone would get in touch with Vermont Country Store and ask (if not beg) them to sell Heyday bars. There is no better treat out there. None. Period. End of story.

I could eat a whole package in one setting. Heyday;s were the best and nothing comes even close for a cookie. An AWSOME cookie they were.To be young again and find them on the shelf.

My husband loves these! I have tried to make them before just off what he told me, but will try again with the copy cat recipe and surprise him. I would love it if they would bring these back, so I could surprise him with a package!!

I worked for Nabisco Brands and I can attest to their lack of marketing skill (to put it kindly). The bean counters killed the Heyday along with the venerable Uneeda Biscuits.

People today don't realize how good cookies can be. Chips Ahoy? Errr...they aren't very good yet we have multiple flavors. Nabisco could dump everything but waffle cremes, oreos, and heydays. I think the bad name did in the heyday.

Along with Mama's Cookies Heyday Bars were another favorite. My grandfather and I would eat a bag of them watching the UK basketball games. Those were the days. When I asked Nabisco why they quit making them I got the same answer not enough consumers buying them. I don't believe that. I haven't found a cookie that replaces any of these. Joe - I did check out that website but, that's not the Heyday bar Nabisco made. That would never taste like the Heyday tasted.

Finally, people that know which cookie I'm talking about! For years, every time I go to the store I wander by the cookie section in hopes that I'll find these delectible goodies. I could never remember the name, but just vaguely remember the packaging. My grandmother used to give us grandkids these cookies, and..ohhhhhhhh..yuminess!! But alas, not that I know they are Heyday bars, I also find out they were discontinued years ago. Grrrr....

These cookies were so delicious!! They need to bring them back. They will fly off store selves faster than they can stock them.

I wanted to buy these for my 34th Wedding Anniversary. When my husband and I married in 1981, money was tight, we would buy heydays at the store, adding the price to our "calculator," when over budget, vegetables, meat, or anything else would be put back, so we could keep the heydays! What a treat and what a surprise it would have been to give to my husband next month. :-(

Hey days are the very best. My husband and I would go to every grocery store and get what they had on the shelf because they sold out so fast. PLEASE Please bring the best thing this side of heaven back. This is truly a cookie loving woman's dream.

I'm so sad I'v been waiting for decades for these - when You obtained the"Heyday" name, Did Nabisco include the original recipe for the Heyday Bars ? Have you thought about going on Shark Tank - As long as you have the Nabisco recipe, I'll bet the Sharks will bite and be fighting over Investing in HEYDAY BARS !!!

I first ate these in kindergarten 1969. I bought them when I was raising my children in the 1990s. Then, the cookies were suddenly gone. I can still taste them. They were the best store bought cookies ever. PLEASE BRING THEM BACK!!!

Yes please bring them back I remember eating them as a child. They were the best cookie bars ever I had found them once when my children were young and I haven't been able to find them ever since. They would be my number one cookie if I could find them

These were my all time favorite cookie! I would buy 2 packages at a time. They always flew off the shelf. We need to bombard Nabisco with requests!

Nabisco did put these delicious 😋 bar out and they were made with wafer carmen cover roasted peanuts and with delicious chocolate and toasted coconut. I would gladly buy a case right now if they had them in the stores Nabisco needs to brings these back. This is an all time favorite of mine out of all the cookies there are today these are it.So Nabisco if you are reading these articles take note of what we are saying....
