While driving down an East Texas country road I spotted this scene. The autumn trees and the late afternoon sun made these golden bales of hay shine just a little bit more. Fortunately I had my camera with me. (c) James Q. Eddy Jr.

After nearly 40 years, the beloved Choco Taco has been discontinued

A MARTINEZ, HOST:

Good morning. I'm A Martinez. We're all screaming for ice cream today - ice cream shaped like hard-shell tortillas. The Choco Taco has been discontinued. Klondike confirmed the beloved treat had to go after it saw a huge spike in demand for its other sweets. But there's still some hope. Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian offered to purchase the rights to Choco Taco and keep it from melting away from future generations' childhoods. If he also revives the Cool-A-Coo, Los Angeles would be forever grateful. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
