Cheeselets. Ruined.

[FurForksSake]

I need to inform you of a terrible, terrible thing. They’ve ruined cheeselets.

I bought a multipack with much excitement. Previously I’d bought multipacks in b&m or similar whenever I’d seen them. For a while they’ve been missing.

i often buy big bags but only Tesco appear to sell them. I am unsure if current stocks of big packs of old style cheeselets are available. In the home counties if you go and check and buy out the stock I will hunt you down.

New cheeselets are fake Doritos cheese type flavour. They are no longer slightly puffy and flaky. They are now hard and uniform.

if they fuck with treeselets we must riot.

Jacob's have also ruined Twiglets as of Christmas this year. I used to have a big bag a week. I've only had 1 big bag this year. Tasteless and pointless. Cost cutting so people notice is terrible for business. They were already expensive but I'd rather a smaller bag or higher price than lower quality.

Heinz baked beans have changed their beans too. They are smaller and harder and give you far worse wind. It’s the continuing enshittification of life.

if they fuck with treeselets we must riot.

I'm with you, they are a big part of my Christmas!

I’ve got a cricut. I’ll make us T-shirts. We will march on big Asda, we will march on Tesco express. They will know our wrath.

if I had known they were even imagining this abomination id have bought 1000 packets. A stale cheeselet would be better than these.

Feel your pain shrinkflation,improved recipe(crap cheap ingredients)
It's down to the manufacturers I think as opposed to the supermarkets.
Jaffa cakes are about the size of an old 10p bit.

My first thought

I suggest we all go to every dodgy corner shop to look for questionably dated treeselets. My Londis has Cadbury selection packs near the tills. I can’t imagine left over treeselets, but this may be our only hope.

I think I have some treeslets in the cupboard from Christmas. Is that my pension sorted?

I have three tubs in my Christmas cupboard - might have to open one with tonight’s glass of wine😀

They’ve taken the cheese out of twiglets so they are now vegan apparently. Now they’re just nasty bitter little twigs. I won’t buy them now, and I used to love a twiglet ☹️

@OilyTussle pour my glass, I’m coming over

enjoy Every last treeselet. Remember them. Maybe one a day and make them last?

I’ve never been a twiglet person but I’m sad they’ve broken them too.

I’m hoping this might be like when Coke tried it on and everyone complained. Cheeselets and treeselets are sacred. They don’t need to be newed or improved.

They've messed with walkers french fries too the bastards

Why can’t they leave things alone?!

YES! Jaffa Cakes. I bought some last weekend and they are half the size they used to be.

Everything is small, horrible and expensive.
What are the companies going to do when we all stop buying their enshittified products?

With the rise of weight loss injections (im nearly two years in) and the enshitification I wonder what exactly they think will happen? People won’t continue buying stuff that’s bloody expensive and rubbish. No one needs a Jaffa cake, it’s not essential. So unless they are nice and at least slightly affordable people will turn away.

This may be a ‘oh do f off’ reply because I know it’s shit they’ve changed a perfectly good product. I don’t actually know if it was good as I don’t know if I’ve ever eaten a cheeselet or a treeselet. But I made these recently and they were superb. I made them for a no upf snack for my kids and basically ate the whole batch myself.

I’ll give it a go!

They need to stop pulling this shit.
Never had a cheese-whateveritis, and I'm glad, because the sense of loss is dreadful. I never especially liked Twiglets, but when I tried one a few months ago as an emergency car snack, I couldn't believe how bad the transformation was. Not twiggy. Not Marmitey. Not fit for human consumption.
Chocolate, you can upgrade for the hit, or get respectable stuff in Aldi. But the trend of pissing about with the crisp aisle needs to be outlawed.

Had a Mars Bar I've cream tonight. Honestly, it's barely bigger than a fun size one now.

They’ve ruined salt and vinegar pringles as well. I used to go through a tube in one go sometimes but I can’t even bear to eat one anymore. I cried when I realised

This is journalism!

Ridiculous 😤🥺

And cheese footballs ruined too.Bleugh🤮

Mini eggs are dead to me now. I really fancied some a few weeks ago and nearly spat it out when hubs dutifully returned from the shop with some. Gone is the dusty crunchy shell, replaced with a waxy horrible coating :(
