OTHER DISCONTINUED ITEMS Fans of McDonald's recently said goodbye to the Minecraft Meal, which fans described as the first McDonald's 'adult Happy Meal' and a McFlurry as part of the change. Whilst, Costa Coffee axed a banana and chocolate muffin in March after it just launched in January. Advertisement 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. Sainsbury's recently confirmed it had discontinued its Patisserie Valerie cake slices from branches. Meanwhile, Aldi axed its popular Deli smoke pork sausages across 100 stores leaving shoppers devastated. Lidl dropped beloved fridge essential Dairy Manor lactose-free skimmed milk from shelves recently too. Sainsbury's has also axed popular own-brand Meat Free Steaks to customer frustration. Advertisement Baked goods giant Greggs recently caused a stir after dropping ham salad baguettes from menus, as exclusively revealed by The Sun. The lunch item was axed in favour of other fresh baguettes, despite its popularity among hungry shoppers. One customer posted on X: 'Was so upset to be told that your ham salad baguettes have been discontinued while at your Marlborough store today." 'That's my midweek treat every week and seems to be very popular.' Advertisement A second added: 'I would have loved a ham salad baguette but for some bizarre reason you have stopped doing them! Scandalous!" Meanwhile, Tesco shoppers were left baffled after finding out it had discontinued six-pint bottles of whole milk.
