"You're all wrong": Expat slams Aussie snacks

<p>A Canadian expat has given a controversial opinion on several popular Aussie snacks.</p> <p>Her opinion, which no one asked for, claimed that some of Australia’s most cherished snacks were simply not worth the hype.</p> <p>Iona claimed that since she’s lived in the country for nearly seven years, she was entitled to a candid opinion, free of nostalgic basis.</p> <p>The expat clearly knew her video would cause a stir as she pleaded for people “not to get mad”.</p> <p>She began her TikTok, "These are Aussie snacks I would not touch with a 10-foot pole,”</p> <p>The first snack she blasted was the infamous Smith’s Burger Rings, a BBQ flavoured corn-based chip that is no doubt an Aussie staple.</p> <p>"Burger rings are a crime to tastebuds everywhere," she said. "They don't even taste like burgers, they taste like sadness.”</p> <p>From there she was quick to attack the next product, Arnott’s beloved TeeVee snacks.</p> <p>"I would rather go to Bunnings and suck on sandpaper than eat these again," she said, pointing to a TeeVee snack box. "You're all wrong.”</p> <p>The beloved Arnott’s Chicken Crimpy shapes also came under the line of fire, with Iona sharing they “taste like nothing”.</p> <p>Even Cadbury made the list with their strawberry flavoured Freddos and the Caramilk bar, both labelled a solid “no” for the Canadian. “Jail. Immediate jail!” she remarked.</p> <p>Aussies were quick to shut her down, sharing their opinions in the comment section.</p> <p>"You don't have Aussie tastebuds. They all rock,” one wrote.</p> <p>“Nah, you've too far gone!” another responded, with the official TikTok account for Shapes replying, ”Agreed."</p> <p>Another TikToker remarked, “I really tried to be tolerant and accepting but I punched a hole in my wall when burger rings came up, and things only got worse from there.”</p> <p>Some jumped to Iona’s defence, with one “Australian” commenting, "I'm Australian and I agree with everything,” but the majority of comments declared she had no business slandering Aussie icons.</p> <p><em>Image credit: TikTok</em></p>

"Bring them back!": Arnott's axes beloved bikkies

<p>Fury has broken out among Arnott’s fans as the famed Aussie biscuit brand has announced the discontinuation of one of its most popular products without warning.</p> <p>That's right - Honey Jumbles are no longer on sale. It's no secret the people are furious as angry shoppers flooded Arnott’s on social media with complaints after their beloved biscuit got the chop.</p> <p>However, the decision to cut the iconic soft-baked gingerbread fingers which are topped with pink or white icing, happened back in July 2021 and only now are people pleading with Arnott’s to “bring them back!”, branding the decision “horrible”.</p> <p>“Arnott’s honey jumbles got discontinued and I’m just finding out. This is horrible news,” one devastated fan wrote on Twitter.</p> <p>“So, Arnott’s, we’re just going to cancel Honey Jumbles without any warning huh?” another wrote alongside a crying face emoji.</p> <p>“Not fair! There’s only so many Venetia’s you can eat when you can’t get Honey Jumbles,” a third said.</p> <p>Amy Wagner, the Arnott's director of PR and consumer experience, has said the decision to axe the biscuit came from poor sales.</p> <p>“We stopped baking our Honey Jumbles in July 2021. At this stage, there are no plans to bring the product back to shelf."</p> <p>However, she softened the blow by revealing Arnott’s had released an adapted Honey Jumbles recipe for the “very passionate fans” so they can recreate the “iconic” biscuit at home.</p> <p><em>Image: Arnott's</em></p>

Arnott's slams wild claim about Scotch Finger recipe

Two for one.</p> <p>“Well, horror (ensued) as I attempted to snap the Scotchie!” he continued, adding that after he snapped it, it formed two “ill formed stubs”.</p> <p>Shocked by what he had happened, he quickly covered his granddaughter’s eyes.</p> <p>“But she did glimpse the carnage and I’m not sure (if) permanent psychological damage has been done.”</p> <p>“Protest, write to your local supermarket, canvass your local member, inundate Arnott’s Facebook page with your views, phone<span> </span><em>A Current Affair</em>, tweet Kochie — do whatever it takes.</p> <p>“I’m old, and I can live with it, but I’m doing it for the kids. If we remain silent it is they who will suffer.”</p> <p>However, Arnotts confirmed that the recipe had not changed.</p> <p>“We bake our biscuits right here in Australia using local wheat, so occasionally if weather conditions have altered the harvest, there can be slight biscuit variations from batch to batch, but the Scotch Finger recipe Aussie know and love remains!” the Arnott’s spokesperson said.</p> </div> </div> </div>

Arnott’s makes Tim Tam using “beautiful” Australian strawberries supermarkets rejected

<p>A new Tim Tam biscuit is boosting a Queensland couple’s bid to save tens of thousands of tonnes of Australian fruit rejected by supermarkets at the peak of growing seasons.</p> <p>Stuart and Allison McGruddy have launched an initiative that fights against the war on waste by freezing fruit. But after further research, they were disheartened to know that many major companies use imported, rather than local Aussie ingredients.</p> <p>But that’s slowly changing, as biscuit maker Arnott’s has used 20 tonnes of the fruit the couple saved in their new limited-edition Sunshine Coast Strawberries and Cream Tim Tam.</p> <p>Mr McGruddy who is a chef, and wife Allison left London eight years ago to work on his family’s farm, and were taken aback at the amount of perfectly ripe Australian fruit being rejected because it didn’t live up to supermarket standards.</p> <p>According to FoodWise, approximately 20 to 40 per cent of fruit and vegetables are rejected before it even reaches supermarket shelves due to not meeting aesthetic requirements.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Featmyberries%2Fposts%2F2877213695663865&amp;width=500" width="500" height="390" style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" allow="encrypted-media"></iframe></p> <p>“I’ve been to farms in the local area with strawberries that dump multiple tonnes a day, and I take photos of it, and it just blows me away,” said Mr McGruddy.</p> <p>“Like after the needle incident a couple of years ago, people got to see just how much strawberry waste happens in the industry, and it is the same with bananas and mangoes.”</p> <p>Ms McGruddy added: “We were seeing lots of beautiful raspberries that might be rejected by supermarkets at the time, and Stuart’s dad said, ‘What can you do with these beautiful berries, Stuart – c’mon, you can do something with them’.</p> <p>“Not long after that we had the 2015 outbreak of hepatitis A that was caused by contaminated berries produced in China, and we thought we need to do something about this, let’s get an Australian offering, so that’s basically the premise behind our business.”</p> <p>They founded My Berries, and freeze and bag a growing range of Australian-farmed fruit in a small factory near Bribie Island.</p>

Arnott’s Tim Tam VS ALDI's "knock-off": Who is the surprising winner?

<p>Undoubtedly one of Australia's favourite biscuits, the iconic Tim Tam has been put to the test by consumer advocacy group <a rel="noopener" href="https://www.choice.com.au/food-and-drink/sweets/chocolate/articles/tim-tams-v-aldi-just-divine-taste-test" target="_blank">CHOICE</a>.</p> <p>Arnott’s classic packet of $3.65 Tim Tams has been pitted against ALDI's “knock-off” version that costs less than half the price at $1.59.</p> <p>CHOICE ran a blind taste test with a group of consumers to see which chocolate biscuit came out on top.</p> <p>Surprisingly, 39 per cent of experts thought that ALDI's Belmont Just Divine product tasted better than Arnott's Aussie classic. </p> <p>However, a majority of the 75 people who participated in the experiment said that they could taste the difference between the two.</p> <p>Meanwhile, some admitted that they couldn’t tell which one was which.</p> <p>61 per cent of the taste testers voted that Tim Tams were their favourite, whereas 27 per cent were confused and said that ALDI's biscuits were Tim Tams.</p> <p>6 per cent couldn’t figure out the difference at all.</p> <p>“It's a lot closer than I'd thought. They're almost identical,” said one of the testers.</p> <p>CHOICE found that Tim Tams have 8.2g of sugar whereas Just Divine has 7.4g of sugar. ALDI's Just Divine brand were more popular amongst those who were less inclined to sugary treats.</p> <p>“Number 2 is definitely the real Tim Tam but I like number 1 better. Number 2 is too sweet; number 1 struck a good balance,” explained one of the testers.</p> <p>In a surprise that comes to no one, the taste testers were thrilled about being involved with the testing.</p> <p>“In the interests of rigour I demand we conduct several repeatable trials over the course of the next couple of years so we can be confident of the results. Science demands it,” joked one of the taste testers.</p>

Arnott’s slammed for "size-shaming" biscuit ad
