Fans of the classic Nesquik milkshake were left fuming after the recipe was recently altered, resulting in a change in texture that many found unpleasant. The change involved removing maltodextrin, a highly processed white powder, and replacing it with rice flour. This resulted in a ‘sludge’ at the bottom of the glass, according to many consumers. Social media erupted with complaints, with fans begging Nestlé to revert to the original formula.
Nestlé has acknowledged the negative feedback and apologized for the change. A spokesperson for the company confirmed that the old recipe will be back in production by July. This news came as a relief to many disappointed Nesquik fans. However, for those who can’t wait until July, some shoppers have reported finding the original Nesquik with maltodextrin at Poundland.
This recent controversy follows another nostalgic food comeback. Cadbury Top Deck, a chocolate bar popular in the 90s, has made a return to UK shelves. The bar, featuring a combination of Dairy Milk and white chocolate, was discontinued in the late 90s but has been available in South Africa, where it gained a loyal following. The limited-edition bar is part of Cadbury’s 200th anniversary celebrations and is available in Tesco until July. It’s a welcome treat for those who fondly remember the chocolate bar from their childhood.
