My tastykakes was mailed in a inverted box of tastykakes
(lemmy.world)
They mailed the snacks in two regular boxes, inside a inverted box of the same thing. This was my childhood snack growing up, and I wanted to know if they still taste good.
Spoilers: meh. It was better when I was a kid.
Preemptive hail corporate - I wish I was getting paid to eat garbage.
I feel like most stuff doesn't taste as good.
So either that we were kids, and it tasted better then while as adults it's too much sugar, or every single snack has gone through enshitification that they are all bad. Honest I think it's the latter. That's what happened to housing, healthcare and just about every other aspect of our lives.
My personal theory is that it's a combination of both of those, with changing recipes and all that, + the way our tastebuds and brains experience the taste of things change throughout our lives for the non-sugary tastes, too, + changing preferences, + time and nostalgia affecting our memories of it.
I've thought about this a lot, lol
