I hunted the web to check, and didn't find anything. Nabsico has a
chocolate-FLAVORED version, which wouldn't be the same at all.

Glad to see both that my memory wasn't failing (more than usual) and
that the passing of time baffles others. :-)

Most coffee shops have them. Why don't you ask where they get their
chocolate covered graham crakers?

They're considered a confection, not a cracker. There are plenty of companys
producing chocolate covered grahams, just not by the major cookie companys (too
costly to produce a good product, and folks these days are more health concious
so they are not a big seller)... there are also lots of cheapo versions made
with fake chocolate, I see them in the stupidmarket cookie aisle all the time,
sometimes I even buy a package, but they are not very good. Most every NYC
appetizing store sells chocolate covered grahams, loose, by the pound.

Aha... look in the cookie section, not the crackers!

Used to. At one time, not too long ago, most every major cookie company
produced chocolate covered grahams. But folks have become much more diet
concious and those types of products have fallen from grace. Sales have
dropped off drastically and so they are discontinued... also decent chocolate
has become too costly so folks are not about to pay the price... and the cheapo
versions, 'no name' brands, are still sold but the chocolate is fake and tastes
awful.

Good quality chocolate covered grahams are still available from specialty
shops, but they cost about $10 a pound.
