We all have products that we absolutely love. But sometimes, companies want to increase their profit so decide to change the recipe or ingredients to save money. Are there are good or bad examples of this for your favourite products?
 
Having choc-chit cookies with no chocolate in them - That's how you cut costs right there.

Does it count when the product doesn't change ingredients but does get physically smaller and charges you the same price. I'm looking at you Toblerone.

I guess technically it counts as an ingredient "change" if they reduced the amount they put in lol. I agree on that 100% though, the gap between the pieces now is just a joke ?
 
Has anyone changed s0mething to keep the cost back
 
There's something about Twinkies where they don't taste the same anymore.
 
I loved Hi-C's fruit punch to death! But they changed something and it was straight up bleh. I don't know what they did but I had to start going with the orange flavor.

Though didn't matter, they soon stopped selling jugs soon afterwards anyways.
 
I buy cheaper coffee than I used to at home, it's about half the price and tastes almost the same.
Same here. I'm finding the store brands are pretty much the same as name brands.
 
I don't think we can do anything about it. It is up to us to remain loyal or not to their products.
