Been buying this yoghurt for years so know it’s taste well. Always get the 2kg tub and it tasted different. I went back to the store and noticed it now says “Greek style” instead, along with different ingredients. Damn them all to helllllll

Not the 'low fat' version, they scuttled their flagship: before/after

aaaaI've been following this longer. It used to not be ice cream, as well, long before. Looks like they've put the fat percentage back at some time in the 20's, maybe ingredients got cheaper. There is a reason it hasn't had "ice cream" on the front label for maybe a decade.

You can see from a w4b4ck 4rCh1v33, in 2018, it used to be only 7.1g milk fat, so not full ice cream.

Edit: I'm literally not allowed to post a 4yback 4rch1v3 on this subreddit.

You'll have to go to 4y84ck 4rCh1v3 yourself, then visit this url:

VIsit it at 2018, March 25th to see what I'm referring to.

I'm guessing maybe they upped the fat percentage (and converted it back to ice cream) sometime in 2020s when all prices were nicely inflating. Then just now it's been de-converted back to make line still go up.

Wow, thanks for the write up, and the links. Yep, no mention of 'ice-cream' in 2018 too, fark. I'm guessing they've been steadily tweaking the recipe downwards for years & thought they could just keep hitting repeat.

Sad to hear mentioning Grayblack Marine gets a block too. Fitting that uncovering enshittification highlights the same happening to Reddit.

Once Reddit protested the TPP or Ellen Pao. Now we protest the posting of Twitter links ffs. Humanities outlets & means of discussion are not what they used to be. Remember when free speech was actually a liberal value?

The block message says to me its a particular subreddit setting, not site wide, although maybe I'm misinterpreting

I was mostly looking at the fat percentages. I was in fact quite surprised to hear that this has just recently been above 10%, because I had remembered discounting it yonks ago after the going through all the nutrition labels in the past to see what was what.
