ingredients? Unfortunately, I threw mine away!

My observations:

1. They are paler than they used to be.

2. The top is slightly concave--and I don't remember that.

3. They are VERY hard--and not in the same way that they used
to be. They are UNPLEASANTLY hard now, and they do not soften
to a decent texture as you eat them.

4. They don't taste very gingery.

I guess I'll either have to make some myself, or I'll go get
some Triple Ginger Snaps at Trader Joe's.

They are absolutely different and they are horrible. I have eaten them for years and today picked up a new box. They are lighter in color, have a stamped impression on the top (fake) and don't even resemble the ones I bought just 3 months ago. I will return the opened box and never buy Nabisco brand again. They look different and taste completely different.
