What are some products that used to be good when they first came out, but over the years have lost their quality and are not that good anymore?

Asked by MRSHINYSHOES (13996points) October 8th, 2011

For example, when I was growing up, Worchester sauce used to be thicker and taste richer and spicier than the sauce made today, and the amount of macaroni you get in a box of Kraft Macaroni and Cheese was more than what you find in a box now. Manufacturers of certain products seem to be saving on costs by giving the consumer less bang for their bucks. This makes me kind of mad.

Can you name any other products (food or otherwise) where manufacturers appear to be “skimping” out and shortchanging the consumer, by altering the “original recipe” and making the product less satisfying in terms of quality/quantity?
