Was In Aldi today (31/12) and saw literally hundreds of quality street tins reduced and no one buying.
Congrats Nestle. How to really screw up a brand and kill it by optics ( replaced wrappers with crap paper), taste ( palm oil tastes terrible snd now all sweets taste the same ) and value. (charging same for less quality)
Used to be a fan. No longer.
Let it rot!
Good luck with that. It’s probably 80% preservatives.
It’s mostly sugar combined with sugar, some added sugar, and some sugary chocolate. It’ll age like pharaohs’ honey
These and any tubs of sweets regardless of the brand.
Stop buying them, they'll stop producing them.
Quality Creeps
Rubbish cul-de-sac, more like.
Disgusting! That is not quality street, that is Humiliation Road.
It’s not even because of the nestle branding, it’s because they absolutely plummeted in quality and cranked up the price.
As far as I’m concerned they are just “Street Chocolates” now.
My grandma loved Quality Street chocolates and we'd have to bring them over from the UK whenever we went home to visit her. It would be her favorite present every year!
If she was still alive, the quality of them now would kill her.
Second rate Alley
Mediocre Street
It’s weird. I’ve not been around any of these this year.
They weren’t in the staff room at work, they weren’t at my parent’s house, we haven’t been gifted a tub. I’m a teacher and often get gifted them by the kids - but not this year. I also absolutely haven’t bought them. It’s highly anecdotal and probably coincidence but it feels very noticeable.
It’s like a national switch has gone off in people’s minds and we’ve just collectively decided “you know what? 🖕”
hell yeah! let it rot and teach the all so meticulous germans not to order from Nestlé!
Nestle have done/is doing some fucked up shit, but replacing wrappers with something more environmentally friendly, isn't one of them. IMHO.
Expect a real deal when they throw them in a dumpster !
All the grandmas in sweat.... so much boxes for the sewing stuff ×)
