Kroger confirms it has discontinued its ‘best after school’ snack – you’ll never see it again

KROGER has discontinued the ‘Best After School’ snack, the retailer confirmed after an outcry from a discouraged shopper.

A customer shared his concerns about the snack on social media, asking Kroger why the product wasn’t on the store’s shelves.

The Twitter user asked “what happened to these,” along with a photo of Kroger’s Make ‘N Bake Pizza Kit with pepperoni.

“One of the best after-school snacks,” said the shopper, Shar.

The frozen savory treat makes four mini pizzas that are perfect for satisfying hunger pangs for kids or even adults.

Kroger’s Twitter account responded to Shar, thanking them for their question.

“We looked at our discontinued listings and yes, this item has been discontinued,” Kroger said.

The retailer reassured the shopper and said they would share their feelings about the snack.

“We will share your desire for this product to be returned,” Kroger said. “Have a great day!”

Another pizza kit fan posted about the snack in 2020.

The buyer told Twitter users about the customizable Make ‘N Bake pizza.

“I just add whatever other ingredients I want,” said the customer.

They added, “I also used a garlic herb butter on the crust.”

This isn’t the first time Kroger has cut the cord of a fan favorite.

The Kroger Non-Carbonated Fruit Punch was greatly missed by shoppers after it left the shelves.

Twitter user Dawne Derry Kirk asked the retailer to bring back the fruit punch, which comes in a 12-pack of 12-ounce cans.

“[I] miss it so much,” he said in a February 2023 tweet.

Responding to Dawne’s tweet, Kroger said, “We shared your interest in the Kroger Non-Carbonated Fruit Punch returning to our shelves with our senior management team for further consideration.”
