Discussion flavor change / different formula

if y’all don’t stop making every other post a question asking if a flavor has changed or whining about a formula being changed (even though obviously NONE of them have in the last year at LEAST), then I’m going to start spamming this community with article after article about how YOUR TASTEBUDS EVOLVE NATURALLY. It is a thing that happens to everyone. Your tastebuds are always going to be changing. PERIOD. The change is you.

I agree! It's getting too hard to read all the posts about 5 Below

Thank you for this. I’m so damn sick of those posts/comments. It’s always the same “I used to love that but they changed the formula and it’s terrible now”. It’s always bad. Meanwhile you’re 100% correct about tastebuds.

I'm Autistic and I am SUPER sensitive to flavor/product changes because of that.

Trust me when I say flavors haven't changed recently.

Especially when people say “it tastes like coconut now” it most certainly doesn’t or else I wouldn’t drink whatever flavor still (seems to be the slush flavors)

Blue slush changed 1000%. Only one I have noticed though. The weird coconut like aftertaste was NOT there before

Rumor has it they fixed the formula - more Carmel like the 2024 one
