According to the excellent book "Cerealizing America", it seems that Clackers had a tendency to cut the roof of your mouth, no doubt explaining the reason for its failure.
@maynardsmoreland Didn't you know? After the Korean War was over Friedman retired from being a shrink and opened up a Jewish pizza parlor next to that hospital in CA where Trapper John worked. It went belly up though. All he sold were Clackers flavored pizzas. No pepperoni, no sausage, no hamburger toppings. Only Clackers. He got so depressed due to the failed business that he spiralled into a deep depression and ended up an alcoholic sleeping on park benches. : (
I remember those Clackers commercials. I used to try to give them to my dog Tippy and then when I'd say "Clackers!" like in the commercial she used to wrinkle her nose and look the other way.
I actually ate some - I've had worse
