We’re all very lucky that most people seem more interested in treats rather than tricks every time October rolls around. And, since we’re all about Nerdoween here, our ears perk up for anything that applies to the treat side of things. It just so happens a fantastic confluence of Halloween spirit, sugary goodness, and a solid chunk of 90s nostalgia is coming together for a delightful Nickelodeon blast from the past.
That’s right! Reptar Bars! The sugar-filled, dinosaur-shaped, tongue-staining treats coveted by rugrats everywhere are on sale at FYE stores. This tooth-decaying good news comes to us from a recent post on PopSugar and we couldn’t be happier about it. Along with the warning about turning the tongues of those brave enough to eat them, FYE suggests that people should check with stores near them to find out which ones will be carrying the treats.
For those unable to track them down, fear not! Because the FYE site still has a whole bunch of Reptar-related goodies which, we’re guessing, will eventually include the candy bars. The boxes of Reptar Cereal they sell would likely have us just as excited as the bars if the box had the same Reptar-mouth pouring design it had in the Rugrats series.
And should you find yourself in the very worst case scenario of not being near a location with the bars and unable to order anything online for reasons we’re too lazy to make up — you can always make your very own neon green Reptar bars at home from the surprisingly abundant amount of YouTube tutorials out there. Here’s one of our favorites.
