  1. Toffee Crisp and Blue Riband can't be called chocolate any more

    'Nestle has reformulated Toffee Crisp and Blue Riband bars, reducing their cocoa and milk solid content below UK chocolate standards, leading to their reclassification as "encased in a smooth milk chocolate flavour coating." This change, driven by rising cocoa prices, reflects a broader industry trend known as "skimpflation," where companies adjust recipes to manage increased production costs. Similar adjustments have been made by other brands, such as McVitie's, which recently relabelled its Penguin and Club bars as "chocolate flavour."'

  9. “We made some changes to McVitie’s Penguin and Club earlier this year, where we are using a chocolate flavour coating with cocoa mass, rather than a chocolate coating. Sensory testing with consumers shows the new coatings deliver the same great taste as the originals.”

    Who are you trying to kid?

  14. It gets frigging worse this time from @McVities. We now have chocolate flavoured bars but have the privilege of paying more for it.

  19. Qui connait ces merveilleux biscuits typiquement anglais ? Les "digestives" ! Un biscuit savoureux et une chocolat au lait délicieux (Ils existent aussi au chocolat noir) !
    Mes biscuits préférés qui font 2mn quand ils sont devant moi. On en trouve facilement en France maintenant 😜
