Rainbow Paddle Pop ruined!!

published

Not only has the box reduced to 6... The Paddle Pop didn't even resemble the Rainbow flavour and consistency we all loved. Horrible will not ever buy again YUK!! So disappointed, I have thrown them away.

Paddle pops are tasteless

published

I will never buy a box of paddle pops again unless the old recipe is bought back !! They are tasteless with a rubbery texture and not creamy at all, I have tried all the flavours and are so disappointing... BRING the original Paddle pop back !!!!

So Upset :(

published

My family sat down tonight and each grabbed a rainbow paddle pop from the box. And to our disappointment, they had a completely bland flavour, a totally different rubbery texture and pretty much no similarities to the paddle pops we know and love. So we threw away the rainbow ones and each got a chocolate one, hoping our experience would be different. Unfortunately it was just the same - a horrible ice cream that was not a paddle pop in the slightest.

I hope streets will listen to the disappointment and feedback from their customers of many years and make a change before too long.

End of an era

Thought I’d just got a bad batch but after research I find so many others. RIP Rainbow paddle pops. I read your doing this to reach a health rating, so you can still sell them in school canteens. Should have thought about how much you’ll lose in sales elsewhere when you’re now selling horrible tasting ice cream. It’s like you’ve swapped full cream milk for skim, and real sugar for artificial sugar. Absolutely useless, will never buy again. Kind of glad there is only 6 in a box now because I feel better only having to throw 5 and a half in the bin

Why fix something that isn't broken

published

Why oh why would you do this!

Very very disappointed in the new flavoured and textured Rainbow paddle pops they taste like a frozen instant pudding mix, I won’t be buying them any more, firstly I was annoyed at the downsizing of 10 paddle pops in a pack to now 6 in a pack, now, they do this why can’t well enough be left alone!

Weird flavour and texture

published

I grabbed some rainbow and banana flavour Paddle pops from Coles today, I immediatly noticed the flavour was off.
I thought that I'd bought a bad batch, but after reading some of other's reviews, I can see that the change appears to have been intentional.
Certainly wont be buying any more in the future.

CHANGE THEM BACK!!

published

I was in my local woolies and seen that paddle pops were ok special so I picked up 2 boxes of banana flavour. I was so disappointed when I got home and had one it was disgusting and tasted nothing like they normally do. Don't fix something that's not broken.

At first bite I could tell the recipe had changed, it does not taste anything like the original and is just horrible. I will not be buying them again at this flavour. I didn't even finish the whole thing. Gross. Such a shame, they were so delicious. Please change them back!

Bad move by Streets!

published

Been eating chocolate paddle pops forever and am bitterly disappointed at the new taste. It's a disaster-why change something that has worked for so long? I've switched to Coles choc pops. Recommend everyone else does the same-and they're cheaper!

Changed to try to fool us

published

Obviously changed recipe, tastes like crap fake ice cream full of chemicals and no dairy, Paddle pops use to be my favourite treat, Will never buy again and feel deceived what's happening to Australia, !

No gold for this rainbow

published

They have officially ruined the last remaining decent flavour they had. Have been purchasing religiously for years. Such a shame - I won't be back unless it gets changed back again.

There needs to be an investigation into this...

published

I was bitterly disappointed after taking a bite expecting that perfect taste and texture only to realise that my Paddlepop tastes like a Billabong. I'm not buying Paddlepops again unless they're changed back. Somebody needs to be made accountable for this.

New rainbow paddle pop recipe sucks

published

Change it back. They didn't mention the change in ingredients on the box, doesn't taste anywhere near as good and the texture is off. They should advertise when they change it back to the original flavour or I won't be back

Disgusting and disgraceful

published

The new flavour is bland and just awful. Why they would think they could get away away with messing with an Australian classic like that I have no idea. #no

Why mess with an Aussie Icon???

published

WTH!! Why would you mess with this iconic flavour!! The new recipe is disgusting and nothing like the original!! I will be boycotting purchasing these until you change it back!

disgusting rainbow paddlepops

published

The flavour is terrible. Used to love these and bought them all the time. Will not be buying them again. Why do companies have to tinker with good products and ruin them.

Taking the Mickey or what?

Disappointed 6 in a box for the same price as 10 rainbow Paddlepops and they’re absolutely terrible. These WERE my favourite. It reminds me of when Arnotts shapes changed. Disgusted

New flavour is AWFUL!

Just had a rainbow Paddle POP and WTH!? What have you done Streets? Too sweet and nowhere near as creamy. YUCK! Just yuck. Been earring these for years and they were always divine. The new flavour is terrible.
