Any industrial food has a formula changing very often, if only because of cost or supply chain issue.
For example, with war in Ukraine, sunflower oil prices have tripled and now are double the price compared to before the war [1].
So a lots of brands have replaced it by another oil, and this certainly impacts the taste, but this can be a secondary consideration at times.
I don't really buy "customers asked us to change the formula", it is probably primarily driven by costs, regulations and in some case, marketing.
