Bring Back Original Vegetable Thins, Nabisco

Posted Tue April 29, 2008 12:00 pm, by Wendell C. written to Nabisco, Inc.

Write a Letter to this Company  |  Rate this Company


Since I was a child, I have loved Vegetable Thins. Recently, I bought Vegetable Thins, noting from the package, "Great New Recipe." Well, they do NOT taste like the Vegetable Thins I know and love. Additionally, part of the fun of Vegetable Thins was the different vegetable shapes, which I see you discontinued all together.

I wish to inform you that I plan to no longer buy Vegetable Thins until they are restored to the tried and true recipe and vegetable shapes that made Vegetable Thins the product I loved.

I never liked Vegetable Thins, but my son used to love them. However,
he agrees with you on both points.. taste and shapes.

If the elimination of trans fats was the reason for the change in
recipe, then it has failed in this product. Trans fats have been
taken out of a lot of food items (Dunkin Donuts, for example) with no
noticeable change in taste or texture. When the result is
unsatisfactory to consumers, it's time for the company to rethink its
decision and either go back to the original recipe or discontinue the
item.

Maybe if Nabisco gets enough negative feedback, they'll go back to the
old recipe and shapes of the Vegetable Thins people know and love.

but I still have memories of my aunt, who went out and bought several
cases of Coke in case the new formula wasn't as good. It wasn't. She
had enough to tide her family (plus me on occasion) over until they
came out with Coke Classsic.

I get why companies feel the need to do these sorts of things, but
it's frustrating when they change something and you really want what
you were getting before.

It must be a transfat issue. I don't buy them often, but I noticed
recently that a can of Pringles had barely a shadow of the flavor and
texture I remember.

Maybe it was my taste buds or a bad batch, but I've noticed this with
other goods in this family.

What price progress? My parents both lived healthy lives until 80+.

I remember when they were discontinued and people were griping at me
about it. I asked the Nabisco Rep about it and he told me they were
reformulating it without Transfats.

So this is the product you get due to liberals in NY that felt the
need to ban Transfats, and then it was picked up by the rest of the
country.

Good Day
