THE Frito-Lay company has discontinued a fan-favorite snack, prompting thousands to sign a petition to bring it back.

The popcorn was made with a special blend of actual cheese seasoning for “the perfect pop and zing,” the chip company said on its website.
While the product can still be viewed online, it can no longer be purchased.
Fans quickly noticed when their favorite savory snack was missing and took to Twitter to investigate.
One Twitter user wrote: “Question: I miss the Chester's Flamin' Hot Popcorn, and I know I can't be the only one. Can ya'll bring this back, please?”

Frito-Lay replied just minutes late stating: “Thanks for being such a fan! Right now, we don’t have plans to produce them, but we will certainly pass your feedback along!”
In fact, so many fans are disappointed it's missing that they started a Change.org petition that already has over 13,500 signatures.

For those missing the snack, the company does offer other delicious products.
One is similar to the popcorn, Chester's Flamin' Hot Puffcorn.
The Puffcorn is nearly identical because it is made with the same seasoning. However, the texture is much different.
While it’s not the same as the popcorn, fans still love it.
One Twitter user wrote: “Chester’s flamin hot puffcorn is bomb every. single. Time.”
Another popular snack is the Chester’s Cheese Puffcorn.
Like its puffcorn products, it's oven-baked with no hulls or hard kernels.

Another fan favorite missing from shelves is the beloved 1990s snack Dunkaroos.
These were a pack of cookies on one side and frosting to dip them in on the other.
Shoppers could choose from different shapes like kangaroos with hats on, hot air balloons, motorcycles, capital D’s, and more.
Plus, each packaging had different icing flavors to accompany the different cookie shapes.
