I have issues with companies that take a PERFECTLY edible and tasty product and decide it needs to be all natural. The most recent confirmed casualty was my favourite range of jelly lollies which were absolutely tops. They were so good. Now they have been replaced with a "No artificial colours or flavours" range. Which suck. Can anyone justify the use of turmeric or paprika in confectionary? Now if this company had wished to bring out a separate Naturals range then I would have no problem. I am quite happy if they wish to have such abominations as an alternative. But not as the only option when it is inferior to the original product.
What brings me to this rant? Well I just had a bowl of my favourite ice cream. It has new packaging. I noticed yesterday that maybe it tasted slightly different. Today I saw "All natural" on the side of the tub. Could this mean that they have naturalised my ice cream?? Maybe I am imagining it... but if they've put turmeric in my ice cream there is going to be an awful lot of Not Yay.
