Foods you eat every day are secretly changing without you knowing welcome back Charlie here
from potato chips getting smaller yet more expensive to products you love becoming worse
to save money here are some food items that have secretly changed first we have to look
at Toblerone recently the spaces in Toblerone have got bigger the space in between the triangles is
now double what it used to be and the triangles are also far smaller all this while the price
has increased the old toblerones used to weigh 400 grams but now they only weigh 360 grams if
they keep doing this how many triangles are we even going to have many fans were devastated
when Toblerone made this change but it saves Toblerone tons of money they can now use less
chocolate less nougard and less packaging moving on let's look at Pringles Pringles is noted as
the only chip company that doesn't sell you air or at least they they were until recently people
have noticed that Pringles have been getting smaller the tubes are the same size but the
chips are not one person recently bought a can of Pringles which was a third empty at this rate
in a few years they'll be selling one potato chip per can the reason for these changes is Pringles
are made of potatoes and starches the prices of those crops have gone up significantly in recent
years so to maintain profit Pringles hit their own product with a shrink rain moving on let's
look at gum you may have noticed many chewing gum brands for replacing one of their gums with
a thumb grip solving a problem that never existed I don't think anyone has an issue gripping their
gum of course they simply did this to give you one less gum saving their money that one less
gum saves the companies a few pennies every sale when we're talking about millions of sales those
pennies rack up to a lot of money saving the chewing gum companies a fortune moving on we
have to look at Nutella Nutella is everyone's favorite chocolate and hazelnut spread but you
may have noticed in recent years Nutella has got lighter in color and that's not for a good reason
the new Nutella now has more sugar and also has more powdered skim milk giving it a lighter more
artificial color it also reduces the quality and makes it more unhealthy fans of the product were
very annoyed a spokesperson for Nutella said the quality is the same but many Nutella fans
simply did not agree they say the taste is now not as good and also complained that it's more
unhealthy now next let's look at Oreos you may have noticed that Oreo filling no longer reaches
the edge of the cooking it used to go right to the edge like on the packaging but Oreo wanted to save
money on their cream filling so now they give you far less Oreo have also made their biscuits and
cream filling far thinner this is to get you to buy their double stuff Oreos but in real reality
double stuff Oreos are how normal Oreos used to be making you pay more for how the product used
to be also Oreo packs now come with some of the Oreos facing up meaning that you're getting less
cookies in your pack but even if you do pay more for double stuff you're still not safe a pack of
double stuff Oreos used to weigh 16.6 ounces but they now weigh 15.35 ounces meaning you're getting
less cookie for the same price next let's look at ice cream one day a guy bought a chocolate
covered ice cream but when he cracked off the Chocolate shell he saw a massive hollow space
inside instead of filling this with ice cream the company left it empty saving the ice cream
company money but ripping off the customer that kind of seems to be the trend nowadays but not on
this channel so be sure to subscribe for more videos filled with facts moving on let's look
at McDonald's McDonald's have made made their burger patties way thinner it's got so bad a
McDonald's pickle is now thicker than their burger patties maybe they should Rebrand the Big Mac to
the Little Mac many customers complained that their burgers seem to be shrinking McDonald's
cheese slices are also getting smaller and it's also sent out they're now giving you less fries
instead of filling their fry boxes fully they now only fill it halfway this is despite McDonald's
increasing their prices year after year moving on let's look at Cadbury's chocolate you may think
this chocolate bar from Cadbury's is a good deal after all it does say now bigger but it turns out
it's the same size as their normal chocolate bars to be fair they didn't say what was bigger maybe
they meant the price I'm not sure how they're allowed to do this but it seems very misleading
but of course charging more for the same product makes cadburys lots of money moving on let's look
at Coca-Cola these two Coca-Cola bottles may look similar but there's a massive difference the old
bottle on the left is 385 milliliters but the new bottle on the right is only 330 milliliters that's
more than a 14 decrease in size but the bottle was designed in a way to make it not look so bad
mainly by keeping the bottle the same height but making it way thinner Coca-Cola have also reduced
the size of their plastic bottles too their large plastic bottles used to be two liters but they're
now 1.75 liters all while the price is exactly the same a company doing the same thing is Gatorade
Gatorade are using the same size bottle burnt with a bigger indent this means on the Shelf it looks
the same but you're getting less drink in your bottle the amount of liquid is always written
on the bottle but they expect people not to check this meaning they can get away with selling less
drink Rolling Along let's look can't Bagels you may have realized that holes in bagels are getting
bigger wheat is getting more expensive for Bagel companies to buy but they don't want to raise
their prices too much so instead they simply make their holes bigger and bigger and if that wasn't
bad enough bagels are also Getting Thinner too some Bagel companies are also giving you less in
their packs this pack of Dempster's Bagels used to be a six pack but now you only get five but
of course it's the exact same price meaning you're paying the same price for 17 percent less product
moving on let's look at Klondike Bars recently Klondike Bars have got thinner the chocolate
around the ice cream is about as thick as a piece of paper also they now use plastic instead of foil
for their wrapping moving along let's look at Ichiban noodles instant noodles are a great way
to eat on a budget but recently Ichiban flavor packs have gotten smaller someone found an old
pack in their spice drawer and the old pack has double the spice meaning that your noodles won't
be as flavoursome anymore they likely only save a few pennies with this change but multiplied by
millions of sales this adds up to a lot of money next let's look at Doritos recently someone saw
a bag of Doritos in their supermarket that said bigger bag more to share but they quickly realized
that the amount of Doritos you get is exactly the same as a normal bag they both weigh 500
grams meaning that while the bag may be bigger the amount of chips inside is exactly the same
technically they did say bigger bag not more chips I guess this bag gives you more air to
share moving along let's look at digestives who doesn't love a chocolate digestive biscuit well
you may like them slightly less now that they're 27 smaller the company has done this to cut costs
although while the biscuit is smaller the price is the same finally we have to look at crunching
it looks like crunchy chocolate bars have been hit with a shrink ray they are now far smaller
despite being a higher price if these get any smaller they'll have to rename themselves crunch
I don't think crunchy is going to fit on packaging any smaller than this but now it's time for you
to make your voice heard comment below which of these food changes was the most sad if you want
