The upside of shrinkflation is that you actually may have had great taste, it was the product that declined. It’s not just the portion size, the ingredients and flavor profile are much worse.
- SoftTalker 2mo agoI feel the same way now about McDonald's and similar fast food. I used to love it when I was in my teens/20s; probably ate some kind of fast food almost every day. Now I think it's just awful. I haven't had a fast-food burger in years. I doubt the ingredients have changed much, but my tastes certainly have.
- tonymet 2mo agototally agree. we used to hit Panera with coworkers and really enjoyed it. I tried it a little while ago and it was just awful. I noticed it had a PE buyout and their products declined. Glad to know my taste hasn’t changed.
- asdff 2mo agoPanera completely upended their menu with that buyout
