I first noticed this a couple of years ago, when I bought a can of
tomato soup, hoping for that glorious taste of a childhood treat. It
sucked. The taste was so different from what I remember that I couldn't
believe they even dared to call it tomato soup.

Well, whatever.

This weekend I was looking for something that I remember as fragrant,
deliciously good thing -and, I had a coupon, and, this particular
product was on sale. Hillshire Farms Polish Kilbasa. I haven't even
thought of buying this product for years, because it does have a lot of
fat in it. But, hey, thought I would give it a go, for a one time treat.

I remember this stuff from about 10 years ago, being just so fragrant,
from just frying it up; and, so delicious. Well, it's changed, and, not
in a good way. There is almost no fragrance involved now, and, it's
almost like a just thicker hot dog of any variety, It sucked swamp
water, big time.

Sigh!! It's a good thing I don't normally buy or eat certain things, as
the reality of what is on offer today, can, sometimes, be just such a
big huge disappointment,
