To be annoyed that the walnut from a walnut whip has vanished :(

[neveradullmoment99]

...and is replaced with a blob of chocolate. Really bloody gutted. Seemingly they have been like this since August. I buy them from time to time but got gifted a pack of three from my dh who knows I love them and felt short changed. They are also no longer called a walnut whip!!! Just a whip!!! Seemingly its the price of walnuts. Cheap skates!

The m&s ones are not so good. The mousse filling is more like marshmallow and the chocolate lacks texture.
What a fucking liberty!

You can’t get a bar of whole nut any more either. The nuts are cheap, horrid, nasty chopped nuts now, and that’s without talking about the abomination that is the state of Cadbury ‘chocolate’ these days.

I hate the walnuts. Give me a chocolate blob anyday.

Tis true cadbury has lost its magic.

incyWincy I repeat my Lidl love. Almond and hazelnut both have big fat plentiful whole nuts in. (and the hazelnut choc is 65p). Squirrels love it.

My allergic DH will be so pleased. Though I've always had one in my stocking so that's one tradition that will die

I don't like walnuts so used to pick that off and eat the rest.

Hallelujah!

Yes a real shame

I hadn't heard about this!!

M&S all the way. They do a salted caramel one, it's lush.

It traditionally had a walnut on it :(

It was the whole point of a walnut whip
I grew up with them.
The top of it now looks 'empty' and wrong!

There is a piece of confection called a whip. It's the walnut whip without the walnut.
That's probably what you've had.

Aldi dark chocolate Whole Nut chocolate is AMAZING

Walnut whips are now a travesty.
M&S ones are good but not quite the same.

Gabsdot if you read the article they have replaced them They are not called a whip.

It's Hotel Choclat for me now or m&s mountain bars. Cadbury and nestle are on the slagheap.

• Sorry that should have read, they have now replaced them with the name whip

How is removing the walnut 'dumbing down'?

WTF no way.

So it's just a whip then?

And yeah to Cadburys choc bars and milk tray mostly tasting like cack now.

Only the dairy milk is OK!

The walnut was the best bit!

...and Revels don't have peanuts anymore. The Western world is just not a welcoming place to the humble nut any longer....it is sad.

I've never even had a walnut whip and I STILL share your outrage.

What's next? Peanut butter with no peanuts?

I was being lighthearted, but lots of things actually seem to be being made simpler for those who don’t want leave their comfort zones and try different things- especially children. Food has taken a big hit; blended sauces and smoothies, so the fruit and veg is hidden etc.

You can still find walnut whips on their own, but they will always be whips in the 3 pack from now on. This is what my dp told me at xmas anyway? He knows my walnut whip weakness and immediately googled it after buying me a pack was 3 boxes

Ruined my Christmas it did.

I am not sure if it is the multipacks. Somehow I don't think so. Read the article I posted above. It is down to the rise in the price of walnuts.

That should have said, I am not sure if it is only the multipacks.

In other words, its nothing to do with offering consumer choice. It seems to me they have removed the walnuts but there are a few packs still floating around.
They have introduced a mint whip and a caramel one but again, without the walnut.
