Any Other Magnum Ice Lolly Fans Out There?

[Anngel]

Has anyone else noticed that Magnums have shrunk, and the chocolate is not as thick? or am I just going gaga? Scrap that, already gaga, but am I right?
Thanks you.

I find them too big anyway, and prefer the mini ones.

[emmie]

most ice creams, lollies, crisp packets and sweet bags have got smaller, and much more expensive, i guess we will have to give them up...

The same has happened to many products in the fight to retain food prices, the sizes are shrinking. Or where you used to get 12 of something in a packet its now 10.

I buy Asda's own, 3 for a £1 - and they are gorgeous.

Very interesting Maydup...but has anyone specifically noticed the shrinking Magnum??

[rockyracoon]

Spikey, I get the Tesco own brands ones, they're excellent with loads of chocolate, I wouldn't buy real Magnums now.

You've not been buying the mini-Magnums have you? I like those best - the ordinary ones are too big.

[Anngel]

Just in case there is anyone out there who did not see this at 7.30.....anyone actually noticed a drop in size quality for Magnum ice creams. And no, I don't want to eat the small ones. That defeats the whole object!

[Iluvspikey]

The 3 for a £1 one are not small Anngel. I thin the Magnum's wth the thickest chocolate are the ones you buy individually in the sweetie shop fridge a they are over £1 each. Morrison's Tesco's and Asda's are all full sized, like when you buy a three pack of Magnums

Have you seen the size of a Wagon Wheel? It's more like a wagon wheel-nut!

[excelsior-1]

the most obvious example of this is the yorkie bar

[bensmum]

I like Magnum Infinity - just discovered them so no idea if they're smaller than before. I'm also greedy so no such thing as a Magnum that's too big :)
(and Wagon Wheels are minute compared to what they used to be)

Doritos, 20% less for the same price as before. Carte D'Or ice cream, 900ml instead of 1ltr, etc, etc. The 'product shrinkage' list increases daily.
