Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Domino's' Ultimate Chicken Mexicana Pizza has been discontinued Credit: Dominos Customers can no longer buy the Ultimate Chicken Mexicana Pizza, which was first unveiled in 2023. Eaters could get a small for £10, medium for £12 or large for £14 as part of the chain's Price Slice deal. The menu option combined spiced pulled chicken, juicy tomatoes, crunchy onions, spicy jalapenos and green and red peppers, topped with a spiced mayo drizzle. However, Domino's has now confirmed it has been dropped from menus. A spokesperson said: "The incredibly popular Ultimate Chicken Mexicana Pizza has been removed from the national Domino's menu. "Despite its popularity, we're always looking to make room for more deliciousness. "In this case, it's to welcome the return of our Double Choc Caramel Cookies as well as another exciting product we'll be revealing next week." News the pizza has been dropped from menus will no doubt leave shoppers distraught. One recently asked on X: "Hi, have you discontinued The Ultimate Chicken Mexicana pizza? "Was my favourite and hope it comes back." Tottenham trolled by Domino's with massive billboard outside stadium mocking trophy drought ahead of Man Utd final clash Others who loved the slice will be fuming to hear it's been discontinued as well, with one branding it "unreal" when it first launched. Another recently posted on X: "That new Ultimate Chicken Mexicana looks banging." Meanwhile another commented: "The new Ultimate Chicken Mexicana is quite good tbf." OTHER DISCONTINUED ITEMS It's common practice for retailers and chains to discontinue products based on customer demand and sales. Greggs recently exclusively revealed to The Sun the Chargrill Chicken Oval Bite had been dropped from menus. But, the bakery chain said it was to make way for the new Roast Chicken Salad Roll, which launched in May. Meanwhile, Tesco also recently confirmed it had axed its own-brand beef sausages. It came after Tesco confirmed it axed popular southern fried chicken flavour instant noodles. The pack costed around 50p, but was dropped and replaced with another chicken flavour shoppers could buy. Tesco also recently cut its own-brand tomato and basil soup from its chilled range. The Sun exclusively revealed last month Cadbury's axed Fry's Coffee Cream after first launching it in 2023 too. Why are products axed or recipes changed? ANALYSIS by chief consumer reporter James Flanders. Food and drinks makers have been known to tweak their recipes or axe items altogether. They often say that this is down to the changing tastes of customers. There are several reasons why this could be done. For example, government regulation, like the "sugar tax," forces firms to change their recipes. Some manufacturers might choose to tweak ingredients to cut costs. They may opt for a cheaper alternative, especially when costs are rising to keep prices stable. For example, Tango Cherry disappeared from shelves in 2018. It has recently returned after six years away but as a sugar-free version. Fanta removed sweetener from its sugar-free alternative earlier this year. Suntory tweaked the flavour of its flagship Lucozade Original and Orange energy drinks. While the amount of sugar in every bottle remains unchanged, the supplier swapped out the sweetener aspartame for sucralose. Do you have a money problem that needs sorting?

Wetherspoons fans devastated as ‘favourite' dip axed from menu
Has your favourite product vanished from shelves?

Sticky soy sauce has now permanently disappeared from the budget boozer's menu. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 The popular menu item has been axed The Asian-inspired dip, which was often served with breast bites, was a popular choice amongst diners. Confused punters took to Reddit to find out where the beloved dish had gone. Writing in a thread one customer asked if anyone knew where the sauce had gone, adding they would be "devastated" if it was axed. Another person said: "Not very happy about it but its gone. So good with breast bites." The Sun reached out to Wetherspoons who confirmed the sauce was taken off menus on May 14. A spokesperson said: ' The company reviews its menus regularly and on occasion, some items will be taken off. 'This is the case with the sticky soy sauce." 'We appreciate that some customers will be disappointed and apologise to them.' The news will come as a blow to customers who in the past described the sauce as "the one". Another fan previously said they "lived" for the beloved liquid condiment. The Sun tries Wetherspoons' new menu It comes as the affordable chain has shaken up its menu in recent weeks. That includes it's famous £6.49 chicken bites, which are "temporarily unavailable" on menus across all pubs in the UK. The staple item featured 10 crispy chicken bites, chips and a bunch of sauces. Spoons has also cut steak, mixed grills and gammon from menus across the country in a cost-cutting shake-up. But it is not all bad news for punters as the chain has launched a range of new Gourmet Burgers. Spoons also launched a £2.99 breakfast deal in February, with customers able to get a breakfast muffin or small breakfast with soft or hot drink. MORE AXED MENU ITEMS Wetherspoons is not the only chain switching up its menus. Greggs recently axed its Chargrill Chicken Oval Bite in a blow to fans. A spokesperson for Greggs told The Sun the bite has been axed to make way for the new Roast Chicken Salad Roll, which launched in May.
