Yes — Giggles was discontinued in 1990 after 5 years on shelves, and it has not come back.
A sandwich cookie with a grinning face stamped through the wafer and two fillings — fudge and vanilla — sharing one cookie. The ads of kids laughing uncontrollably were meant to be joyful; they read differently now.
