Changes in the recipes of snacks & other foods

I just posted on the "Snacks" thread on here & it reminded me that some chocolate bars & other snacks used to have different recipes / ingredients. Things like:-

Fruit & Nut bars used to have hazlenuts in them.
The old Rowntree Mackintosh chocolate bars are too sweet since Nestle took over the company.
Wagon Wheels HAVE got smaller in recent years, it's not just that my hands were smaller in the past.

Can anyone else think of other chocolates / snacks that have different recipes now from the way they used to be made.

Twix..........a few years back they were advertised as "New Crunchier Biscuit". Its true but to me its completely spoiled them. I used to adore Twix but they are not the same anymore.

KP salted peanuts.......they are not lower in salt and you can tell!! They are awful now.

Sherbet Fountain......now in a plastic tube and totally ruined.

Most fizzy pop.........aspartme has ruined most fizzy pop and some cordials (Robinsons for one).
If you want a diet drink then fine, use sweeteners......but why the hell do they use sweeteners in the Non-diet ones?? Most of these companies fail to realise that many people can taste sweeteners as bitter and it leaves a very nasty taste in your mouth. Not to mention the harm that artifical sweeteners do to us. Giving children these sweeteners is crazy mad.
