The guys over at Joe.ie shared details yesterday via a Reddit user, Keith11 of what is rumoured to be the new Guinness glass. Unlike the traditional tulip pint glass of old, or its more recent counterpart with the snazzy grooves on the side of the glass, this pint glass looks more like an Erdinger pint glass; taller with a very slender base.
Guinness drinkers have taken to Twitter to voice their concern about the change.
It's not the only thing that's changing that people aren't happy about either... The Cadbury's Creme Egg recipe has recently changed leaving chocolate-covered-gooey-egg lovers angry that the goo is not longer covered in Dairy Milk chocolate, but instead a standard traditional milk chocolate. Not. The. Same.
The Early Breakfast listeners had some venting of their own to do too.
They're not happy that the Pink Snack now only has 2 fingers instead of 3. As Baz in Wexford says 'you're only getting into it when it's gone'.
The Yorkie has lost a chunk. Not impressed.
Texter Ann says they've ruined Special K. They can keep their 3 grains!
Sinead says Loop the Loops have changed, and not for the better! The lemon bit doesn't taste the same. The chocolate is different and the top of it is smaller. We think the smaller top makes it easier to fit it all in your gob at once, but we're not on board with the flavour changes. In fact, while they're at it, maybe HB could bring back all our childhood favourites. Remember how many you could buy with £1? A Golly Bar, a Choc Ice AND a Calippo.
Why did they have to go and change Two and A Half Men was another question. Well, there's a very good reason for that and it has a lot to do with Charlie Sheen and his antics, but one EB listener is not happy with it since Ashton Kutcher took over the lead role. Waldon't!
Mobile phones got a few mentions. Pat in Cork says we were much better off when all we had was a simple Nokia with snake and a couple of old skool txts (WB bbz xxx), instead of these silly smart phones that have us all addicted to Facebook and panicking when it crashes.
And the wrappers on the Dairy Milk bars got a mention. Bring back the old gold foil and purple paper says Nick in Limerick!
The moral of the story is, if it's not broken, don't fix it. We're creatures of habit and like things the way they are. Although I bet if Cadbury's decided to add a finger to the Pink Snack no one would be complaining.
