Foods They Don't Want You To Know Have Secretly Changed

sometimes I bite into one of my favorite snacks and think it tastes a little different it's easy to assume that maybe I'm catching a cold or my taste buds have changed but as it turns out I'm not the only one who has noticed differences in some products in fact many companies secretly change their formulas to save money meet new government guidelines or make a healthier product prepare to be amazed by this list of ten snacks they don't want you to know have been secretly changed bagsy number ten Twinkies I know I'm not the only one who remembers enjoying the delicious cream filled cakes of Twinkies as a kid unfortunately around the late 90s parent company hostess brands decided their profits just weren't sweet enough to keep the lights on eventually Twinkies were discontinued although they were reintroduced after what was left of the company was purchased by a Wall Street holding company the newly reinvigorated hostess called the return of Twinkies the sweetest comeback ever but my taste buds aren't the only ones to disagree many people notice the cakes were smaller drier and the creamy filling just didn't taste as good hostess admits it tweaked the cakes to extend their shelf life and make them slightly smaller but despite having a longer shelf life the cakes taste less fresh to a lot of consumers sadly the sweetest comeback ever has left many with a bad taste in their mouth this isn't the first time Twinkies changed their iconic flavor though when the sweet treat was first introduced in 1930 it was made with banana flavored filling but then bananas were rationed during World War two that's when the company came up with the tasty vanilla flavored filling we all know and love or used to anyway I don't know about you but I'm glad they left the banana filling in the past what's next an applesauce stuffed ho-ho number nine McDonald's menu items McDonald's sells a lot of vanilla ice cream between cones and using it as a base for their famous McFlurry x' it's hard to believe they changed the ingredients last year and no one even noticed but that's what happened the fast food restaurant started removing artificial ingredients in late 2016 and pulled artificial flavors from the vanilla ice cream that contributes to about 60% of the chains dessert menu the artificial ingredients apparently didn't contribute much because no one noticed a difference in flavor meanwhile the company also changes are iconic Chicken McNuggets when they stop sourcing chickens raised with antibiotics another tweak that likely went unnoticed in the taste department one thing consumers have noticed the chain changed their french fries in 1990 switching to vegetable oil instead of beef tallow for the frying process while this made vegetarians happy many customers remember the french fries of their youth tasting better and complain that today's fries are more like cardboard but hey at least they don't advertise with a giant cow holding up a sign that says eat more fries number 8 Fanta don't you want a Fanta maybe not if you've noticed the new taste like I have and I'm not alone many fans are annoyed at the new formula particularly of the orange flavor in an effort to avoid a sugar tax on soda the company changed its UK formula to have less sugar and more artificial sweeteners the logo and bottle also changed but consumers were most annoyed by the new flavor many fans complained that it has a nasty aftertaste common with artificial sweeteners and have told the company they would rather have the full sugar version back so far the soda remains unchanged from its new recipe in fact despite consumer complaints the sodas parent company even bragged about how well-received the new drink was I'll have more on that a little further down the list number 7 subway bread subway has a healthy image and many people probably get a Subway sandwich after yoga class however health conscious consumers don't want to eat their yoga mat and some got angry after learning that a chemical used in yoga mats also found its way into the chains bread as a dye carbon I try saying that three times fast is used to make shoe rubber and those sticky masks were using yoga class it was also added to the sandwich restaurants bread as a bleaching agent when a popular food blogger demanded the ingredient be removed calling it a natural fans agreed and bombarded the company with complaints subway tried to save face by claiming they were planning to remove the ingredient anyway and so they did guess that means that now your footlong won't taste like an old shoe number 6 Taco Bell subway isn't the only fast-food place trying to pull a fast one removing artificial ingredients from its menu Taco Bell started doing the same in 2015 and it may affect the flavor of your Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos Tacos supreme among other items that contain nacho cheese and beef seasoning if your cheese looks a little pale that's because it has no more yellow number six artificial flavors were also replaced with natural ones in the chains seasoned beef move-over artificially flavored beef and dairy products today's fast food restaurants are going the natural route now you can live mas the clean way number five not even your coffee is safe with all these changes to fast food menus at least my coffee is safe right not so fast I noticed my Nescafe original just doesn't taste the same and that's because the formula has changed I wasn't the only one to notice numerous consumers complained about the new red top cans some even compared the flavor to dishwater this juxtaposed badly with the company's claims that it was new and improved a spokesman responded by repeating how full the flavor was multiple times in this statement at nestle we continually improve our product experience for our consumers consumers told us that while they loved the full flavor of Nescafe original they'd love a fuller flavor our new recipe captures the fullest flavors and aromas of freshly ground coffee to deliver our fullest flavored Nescafe original yet all I get out of that double-talk is that the old flavor was full but the new flavor is fuller and I agree I think the new and improved claims are definitely full of something number four Nestle chocolate I need a nice gooey chocolate chip cookie to help me get over my massive coffee disappointment whoops those change too now the chocolate morsels made by Nestle just start melting like they used to is nothing sacred after people complain their chocolate chip cookies weren't coming out right with Toll House morsels the company admitted to making what they called minimal tweaks to its formula replacing artificial vanillin with real vanilla although it claimed these changes shouldn't affect flavor fans disagreed meanwhile the baking and candy company took some heat for slashing the sugar in KitKat bars in the UK both Kit Kats and milky bars got new labels that tell tit now with extra milk and cocoa as a cover for reducing their sugar content by 10% break me off a piece of that lower sugar bar just doesn't have the same ring to it for some customers who wish companies would stop breaking up relationships between and their candy number three Cadbury Creme Eggs in another candy catastrophe Cadbury Creme Eggs were also secretly changed by the company's us owners the egg was swapped out from Dairy Milk chocolate to a cheaper cocoa mix chocolate the company claims cost had nothing to do with it and the cocoa mix chocolate was just the best one for the creme egg never mind that it was also the best for their bottom line many fans were angry at the change and claimed the new flavor was cheap tasting if the company was hoping that Easter Bunny would bring it extra sales they were wrong angry fans his poor appreciation for the new eggs cost the company millions of pounds and losses both in the US and the UK sounds like they need to hop on back to that old formula recently Cadbury also came under fire from fans of their mini eggs who claimed they tasted cheaper however experts claim the change in taste is down to rising coca prices others can't help but think it's due to changes made by craft after took over Cadbury's in 2010 number 2 coca-cola coca-cola is one of the most famous examples of a disastrous change in formula in 1985 they tested a new recipe for their iconic drink in taste tests the new drink beat the old one by a wide margin taste testers love the new coke even more than Pepsi which Coke considered an important selling point so the company made a bold unprecedented move replacing their tried-and-true old formula with the new one no one could buy old coke for several months that year and the company expected the new product to sell well it did at first but once the novelty wore off people realized they missed the old flavor and stopped buying coke altogether eventually the corporation admitted its mistake pulling the new beverage and re-released the old one conspiracy theories abound about how such a large company made such a colossal blunder some thought it was a huge marketing ploy or a way for coke to transition from sugar cane sweetened coke to the less expensive high-fructose corn syrup however the cheaper sweetener was already almost entirely used in the old coke before the transition it was just down to the nostalgia and familiarity consumers had with the original product recently though the company has started tinkering again at least with some other drinks in its a collection in Australia the company quietly replaced 15% of the sugar and sprite with stevia and claims customers are fine with the change of course they also claimed the UK release of the 30% less sugar phonto was a huge success I guess they're not counting the angry customers I mentioned earlier meanwhile in the u.s. Coke Zero was renamed Coke Zero sugar to make it clear the product has no sugar although it never did the ingredients list is the same and the flavors said to be similar so this is more of a rebranding effort not surprisingly coke doesn't want a repeat of the we want a rolled beverage back tobacco that happened in the 80s before I reveal the most outrageous example in this list I'd like to remind you to subscribe to be amazed we upload amazing fact-filled videos every day so don't miss out on learning some amazing new information also hit that Bell icon for notifications on more amazing fact-filled videos number one nutella lighter in color heavier in sugar while coke and other brands try to quietly reduce sugar other products have done just the opposite fans were recently outraged at the new Nutella spread is lighter in color but has more sugar the new recipe also has more powdered skim milk and a spokesperson claims the quality is the same fans of the product however beg to differ saying the taste is all wrong now while others complain that the high sugar formula was unhealthy one Twitter user actually compared the company's self-described fine-tuning of the recipe to drawing a moustache on the Mona Lisa while the nutty spread is now lighter in color it may leave you a little heavier did you notice any of these snacks had changed before watching this do you know of any more that have changed secretly that we missed out on let me know in the comment section down below thanks for watching you [Music]
