You're an uneducated retard but I'll explain.

As you get older, your taste buds become less sensitive. That's why children love candy, teenagers still do but less, 30 year olds like it less, etc etc.

When you are a kid/teenager, the sugar taste is so intense that it masks all the shitty chemical flavors. As the sugar sensation you get reduces with age, you begin to notice you're eating chemical sludge.

>> No.18396278

maybe that's the reason as to why Twinkies don't taste so good anymore. I had some a few weeks back for the first time since childhood and was severely dissappointed. I can't believe people even lead a campaign or started to stockpile them when Hostess was supposedly "discontinuing" them
if that's true then why doesn't other stuff I haven't had since childhood not taste different? It's gotta be something else anon

Things also change their recipe. Sometimes they change out ingredients for synthetic shit that tastes like plastic. For example, Coke now tastes like plastic shit to me.

Chips are starting to suck now, and it applies to most of the big brands. Lays/ruffles/doritos/etc. Seasoning got real fucking expensive with covid and hasn't stabilized yet, that's why all the new flavors are just recycling other chip flavors or just dumping flaming hot seasoning onto everything, because flaming hot is artificial and cheap to produce in the states. They're all way less seasoned than before, they're definitely putting less on and it's extremely obvious. The only thing that's slightly better are limon hot cheetos, because I always loved the sour/lime flavor and they've been dumping more citric acid on them because that's even cheaper than flaming hot seasoning.

It might be the sweetener and some of the other flavoring components.

I had chocolate milk a few times as a kid and really liked it, so I bought some when I was in college and ended up pouring it down the drain because it tasted so shitty. I thought it was rose-colored lenses but then tried a homemade syrup of cocoa and sugar, and realized that was it, that they'd changed the flavor components from natural ingredients to some kind of chemistry experiment.

For me, it's regular Mountain Dew. I stopped drinking it several years back when they introduced the 'Real Sugar' version, plus some of the other flavors I ended up liking better (mainly Voltage). When I tried drinking some in the last year or so, there was something about it that just tasted wrong - the only way I can describe it is a 'chemical' flavor, which is imprecise as fuck but nothing else comes to mind. I'm also 46 so that probably plays a part, too...

Two major reasons major snack brands don't taste as good as they used to:
>trans fats scare/ban
People were getting fatter (not you third worlders, nobody gives a fuck about you) and trans fats were pointed to as a major contributor. Well, their major issue was directly tied to heart problems, but fatties' hearts were affected even more because they were lardasses that compounded the problems and they couldn't keep their sausage fingers off the sweet and salty foods that were loaded with trans fats. So, many companies removed trans fats well before the 2018 ban deadline BUT almost every single item that had trans fats just replaced them with MORE sugar and oil/fats. Now landwhales have really ballooned because their hearts can hold out slightly longer.
>maintaining profit growth
Almost every single one of these brands is from a large company, and many of those are parts of conglomerates. The way the economy is structured requires public companies to consistently post growth. One of the easiest ways to maintain growth is to reduce the cost of production, and in foods' case that means cheaper ingredients is the easiest of the easiest method. Usually cheaper substitutes. Sugar substitutes, fats substitutes, dairy substitutes, chocolate substitutes, etc.
The Oreo cookie is VERY noticeable in difference for anyone who had them over several decades. The Oreo now, the 90s-mid 00s, and the pre-90s Oreo are basically 3 different products.

tl;dr
>replacement of ingredients over time has effectively made these different products in familiar packages

I never thought they tasted good. As a kid when I'd do a sleepover at a white friend's house I was amazed at the following:

-All the food tasted like chemicals, like the "juice" that burned my throat and was 2% actual juice
-Everything smelled weird
-Everything was damp all the time like someone pissed on it
-No one took off their shoes inside
-Street clothes on the bed was acceptable
-Nobody seemed to ever wash their hands
-The rare occasion when an actual fresh fruit was consumed, it was normal to go find a box of literal sugar and dump sugar all over it first

Mountain Dew tastes different because they removed one of the chemicals - they took the brominated vegetable oil out in 2020. Brominated vegetable oil is an emulsifying agent, so without it, the other chemicals in Mtn Dew do not combine together quite as well, causing that taste change.

Are you perhaps ignorant of modern germ theory? There's plenty of germs even on "clean" stuff as any surgeon can tell you, cleaning your house is just a matter of being a civilized human being. I can't imagine being able to tolerate being surrounded by filth all the time. A dirty cup on the coffee table here and there, some crumbs on the floor fine whatever, it's no biggie especially for a busy parent who has to wear many hats, but take off your shoes when you come in from the outside, wash your hands after you use the toilet, take a shower before you jump in the pool, wipe your face if you miss your mouth shoveling food into your pie hole, don't double dip your chips in the guac, if you grab some food from the common plate, it's yours now.... are these just outdated superstitions?

And it's the store brand, so for $2 I get a big bag of nostalgia. This current bag, each chip is COATED in seasoning, I can only have a few before I close it back up.
side note: as a kid, eating these hot chips, mom would pour some in a ziplock for my lunchbox. I got an entire ball of the seasoning, compacted, a little smaller than a golf ball. I found it while sitting at the lunch table and suckled on that thing for two days.

No dude, it's not that the formula changed - something YOU did makes it taste different!

you have multiple kinds of tastes buds that are receptive to different things. primarily: sweet, sour, and many different kinds of bitter receptors. idk if it's true that sweetness receptors decline with age, but your metabolism does decline which makes it more of a chore for your body to deal with an abundance of sugar that literally melts in your mouth.

Nah, tastebuds change as you get older, but you don't just stop enjoying sweets because you get old. My grandmother was still asking for sips of coca cola on her deathbed.

I'd have to check the recipes, but I'd imagine a lot of those items have changed their recipes to be less expensive or perceived as healthier. Most cheaper sodas for example have taken to replacing much of their corn syrup with sucralose, which tastes like shit.
