Choco Taco was a Good Humor-Breyers ice cream novelty resembling a taco. It consisted of a disk of waffle cone material folded to resemble a hard taco shell, reduced-fat vanilla ice cream, artificially flavored fudge, peanuts, and a milk chocolate coating.[2] The Choco Taco was marketed under the Klondike brand as "The Original Ice Cream Taco".[3]

The Choco Taco was discontinued in 2022.[4]
