Simple but rich, it consisted of vanilla soft serve, brownie chunks, hot fudge, and marshmallow sauce, topped with Oreo cookies. But before you shed another nostalgic tear, fans need to know they can still delight in this earth-shaking treat, albeit under a different name. In 2019, Dairy Queen introduced a "new" item that's really just a rebrand of this gone-but-not-forgotten sweet.
When sold with a drink and a cookie, the round sandwich formed what was known as a Kids' Pak for just under $2.50. Another version of the Kids' Pak was advertised for $3.69 and included the round sandwich, fruit punch, and a Fruit Roll-Ups snack served with a toy. "I used to order them all the time as a kid," wrote one Redditor. But children weren't the only ones enjoying this treat - some recall eating the sandwiches as college students or with their grandparents. Now, however, the item has become one of those fast food classics we may never get back.
The sandwich starts with a fried, golden chicken filet that is topped with Monterey Jack cheese, a crisp piece of lettuce, a slice of tomato, and a dollop of ranch sauce with bacon bits. Originally released in 1993, the sandwich quickly became the most popular non-burger item on the menu and left a lasting impression on Wendy's diners. Wendy's has occasionally brought an iteration of the sandwich back to the chain's 99-cent Right Price, Right Size menu
