I bought a multi-pack of little cereals because I fancied some sugary cereal and I had the cocoa pops this morning. I swear they don't taste like they used to. They were gritty, chemically, definitely not as chocolatey and not all like I remember. Anyone else thing the same? Any other cereals that don't taste like they used to?

Or maybe I'm just getting old.

Quite a lot of food products don't taste the same anymore, everything is now half fat, half sugar, low salt, no salt etc etc...... I guess it is a good thing as they are now healthier for us but there is noticeable taste differences in some things.

I know, everything tastes different nowadays, I used to love Toffee Crisps but they are boggin now and I hate it when I see jar with 'new improved recipe' you just know its gonna taste like recycled vomit.

Me too.... 'best ever', 'new recipe', 'new improved' ... if it ain't broke don't fix it

I think the whole food industry has gone mad with healthy options stuff, I'm neither stick thin or overweight and I eat what I fancy, as they say 'a little bit of what you fancy does you good'

You either grasp the concept of being educated about food or you don't ... simple

Sugar puffs taste vile to me now, although I'm currently addicted to Coco Pops...so chocolatey

Don't forget your taste buds change over years, so things will taste different.

'New Improved' - We've found a cheaper way of making it...

Do Victory-V still taste the same?

I prefer coco gritties, mmm so chemically.

I'm on the Frosties this morning and they still taste good.
