It seems every company which sells what we drink and eat has a deep obsession in {improving as they call it} long time established successful products. The soft drink companies are the very worst for this. Coca Cola's new frenzy of label of the month is also highly annoying. So is their packaging where you almost have to read labels word for work so you don't get Cherry Yuppie Kiwi Diet decaffeinated Coke which they placed in packaging designs nearly identical to regular Coke. Several times I have almost bought the wrong one.

The snacks companies are getting as bad. Do you like Chips Ahoy chocolate chip cookies? Well say goodbye to them because they are changing the recipe on them now. Some Group Of Corporate Nerds in their companies HQ have decided they like new and improved flavored ones better and they don't care what you like.

I'm 68 so I remember what Coca Cola, Pepsi, Mt Dew {which they have totally ruined}, RC, Dr Pepper, and all the rest actually tasted like with Cane Sugar.

It's basically the same mindset that enjoys having Microsoft's new OS which are almost each time a huge downgrade.

I don’t think they improve these products, they make them cheaper.
