I've actually tried the super stuffed fudge one and it had way more filling than the others I've had in my life. I admit I'm not quite old enough to have tried them during the 60s, so maybe they were different back then?

The trick is actually that you are paying the same price for the box of poptarts but each wrapper only contains one instead of 2, so you get half as many for the same price.

nike bought converse, cheapened the build and materials for the chucks, and sells the original build as a premium, vintage model

In australia they have 'shapes' which is a cracker dusted with flavor but over the years it's become a lottery whether you get a pack with any flavor or not. And now they've released 'fully loaded' shapes which has extra flavor. JUST LIKE THEY HAD YEARS AGO. Fuck em. I boycott. Revolution!

We could have tribunals. I'm just saying. There's nothing that says we couldn't set up, I was going to say kangaroo courts but honestly normal courts would work too, but either way courts in which these executives are put up against the wall. We could do that. We could cleanse

Just bought a box of cheezits that's as small as any I've ever purchased and the box is labeled "Party Size 75% More". I was like "75% more than what?"

innovative ways to fuck over the consumer and stack profits higher and higher. there used to be people tasked with imagining clever jingles to sell products. at least you could be proud of that job.

imagine being an overachiever and going through university and graduate school and your job is 'finding new ways to manipulate people.'

you'd think if they were really smart they'd realize they're garbage. right???

anticipating halloween I thought it said "SPIDER STUFFED"

I tried those the other week.

I also tried the originals back in the 70's

The stuffed have maybe 30% more than the old school product.

The stuffed also only come 5 to a box with more air space in the box. They're def selling you less ingredients overall.

Moot point in my household. Toaster Strudel or nothing since the 90s, motherfucker.

Hey... its NEW and MORE... how bout the price?

Regular Pop-tarts already have about the max added sugar per day for women 24 g, 36 g for guys.

At your next checkup, ask for fasting insulin and CRP test if they can get approved, or it doesn't cost a lot at a private lab to see where these are at. Then you can calculate the following that might indicate issues early. TG/HDL: Triglycerides ÷ HDL (both mg/dL). HOMA-IR: (Fasting insulin µIU/mL × Fasting glucose mg/dL) ÷ 405. This is about the insulin and inflammation axis, gut/brain health, type 3 diabetes, metabolic healthy, leaky gut.

Capitalism innovates*

*profits only, ideas/innovations/new products/streamlined production are extracted using public funds only.

I'm pretty sure this is already illegal in the EU

How about they start with covering the whole surface with frosting not just 40%

You mean new, more expensive product.

Chipotle just changed their "featured" chicken flavor (at about a dollar extra cost per bowl). It's just their old regular grilled chicken and now they just don't season the regular chicken, so it feels like there is a difference. It was too much cost for them to add $.002 cents of al pastor sauce per pan of chicken that holds like 60 portions of chicken.

Unfortunately, "innovation' includes marketing innovation.

"Innovation"!? 😂 It would be one thing if capitalism was actually working. But it's not sustainable! All these CEOs and companies seem to know how to do is cut quality, layoff workers, shrink packages, increase prices... Eventually, it'll just be a handful of people making 2oz boxes that cost $20 each.

they had filling?

Where is it that pop tarts are only $2.99? Asking for me cause I’m broke.
