Re: In case you were wondering…..
Panzey, when I’m buying Nabs for our Nabs Parties, I always look for Nabisco Nabs but have not seen them in years. According to info below, they stopped selling them late 70’s. I remember that in Dad’s grocery store, he had a big glass jar that had Nabs painted on it. But the last few days, as I’ve been shopping for the Party, I’ve found only Lance, Ritz, and Keebler. Most are peanut butter, but I did get some cheese for Steve!! What caught my eye in the article above was how she always kept a pack with her. Ya never know when you might have to prevent a sinking spell! Nabisco stopped selling these packets sometime in the late '70s or early '80s, and Lance became the dominant brand, but the name stuck around like peanut butter on your palate. (Nabisco renewed the trademark for the last time in 1988 and canceled it in 2009.) Folks don't generally accuse my state of being progressive, but just like Confederate flags and Sunday blue laws, the word "Nabs" is just one of those obsolete things that some Southerners have refused to give up.
