At last, something on which we agree. I had to stop buying my favorite type of Melba Toast because they switched to Sea Salt. The toast tasted so awful, I couldn’t eat them anymore—and this is something I used to LOVE. Very sad.
Isn't that awful? Your mouth gets already for a favorite taste and Blech! LOL
Don’t be so quick to blame the salt on that one, it may be the oil or fat they used. The zero trans fat products are like eating cardboard. I called Archway to complain about their molasses cookies and the customer service person admitted they were getting lots of complaints about the change in texture and taste but the zero trans fat was healthiest and they would not go back. I told her that bag was the last Archway product I would ever buy.
I buy one small can of Crisco a year to make my grandmother’s ginger cookies at Christmas, now that Crisco has gone zero-trans fats the same thing, texture and taste is affected and they are like cardboard. I have seen lots of complaints about the new Crisco on a baking chat board where I read. Most comments are about the change in texture of pie crusts. They are now less flaky.
