CHIPS Ahoy! has removed a fan favorite from the shelves – and fans are literally crying over it.
Overall, the snack brand is one of the most prominent seen in households today.
But oftentimes times companies are forced to make tough decisions and discontinue certain products.
And this is the case with the Chips Ahoy! brownie chewy variety.
One customer asked on X about the flavor, stating that they had not been able to find those cookies in "months" at stores including Target and Walmart.
In response, Chips Ahoy! broke news and said the "limited edition" flavor "is no longer available."

And let's just say the news was not taken well by the customer.
"I just fell down to my knees in tears," the fan of the brownie chewy flavor wrote in a reply.
While prices can vary by location, the brownie flavor was previously available at Walmart in a 9.5-ounce package for $3.99.
The cookies were described as "soft" on the outside while containing a "chewy brownie filling"

The chewy brownie flavor contained 10 grams of added sugar per serving as well as ingredients like palm oil, corn syrup, baking soda, artificial flavors, and caramel coloring.
Walmart customers overall had a positive view of the discontinued product, scoring it 4.1 stars out of five.
One described the item as a "soft chocolate chip cookie, filled with rich moist brownie, oh so perfect with a cup of coffee to satisfy that sweet afternoon craving."
Another customer in a positive review said: "They are soft and if you put [them] in the microwave for a few seconds they really delicious."
OTHER ALTERNATIVES
While their favorite might be gone, some fans might fall in love with other iconic Chips Ahoy! cookie varieties.
One of them is inspired by Hershey's chocolate, which is stuffed into the cookie.
The Hershey's Chip Ahoy! cookies sell for $3.88 at Walmart in 14.85-ounce packages.
In addition, Chips Ahoy! makes a flavor that combines its cookies with Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.
These sell for the same price as the Hershey's variety.
But if you're solely looking to combine brownies and cookies, you may have to go off-brand.
For example, Walmart - in its bakery section - makes turtle brownie cookies under its Marketside brand.
They sell for $4.98 each in six-count 13.5-ounce packages.
MORE DISCONTINUED PRODUCTS
But Chips Ahoy! is far from the only brand that has been discontinuing items.
For example, SunChips has gotten rid of the sweet potato and brown sugar flavor.
The ingredients consisted of a mix of whole corn and whole wheat.
Some other ingredients included sugar, butter, salt, natural flavors, maltodextrin, honey, and seed oils.
When in stock at Walmart, a seven-ounce bag sold for $8.81. That equals $1.26 per ounce.
Another includes Doritos, which has discontinued the hot mustard flavor.
Along with mustard, the chips were filled with spices, sour cream, natural and artificial flavors, onion powder, Monosodium Glutamate (MSG), and seed oils.
At Walmart, the mustard-flavored Doritos sold for $3.88 in a 9.25-ounce bag.
But Doritos did leave the possibility that the variety could return in the future if enough fans beg for it to come back.
Kellogg's Cheez-It recently confirmed that it has discontinued the sweet and salty snack mix.
It featured popular M&M's milk chocolate pieces, salted pretzels, sugar corn squares, and caramel-flavored popcorn along with the Cheez-it original pieces.
Some other ingredients in the box included artificial and natural flavors, seed oils, and artificial food colorings.
Per serving, there are five grams of added sugar.
In an eight-ounce box, the treat sold for $7.53 at Walmart.
