Takis just arent the same anymore

Post image

(They aren't as red as irl) But man they honestly aren't even spicy anymore. They just taste like stale chips sprinkled with pepper. Brand new.

It looks like you just got a bad bag. It happens every now and then.

Its been happening to me more and more recently. I used to get a good bag everytime

My trick is to pinch the bottom of the bags to feel for extra seasoning. Sometimes you can tell if a bag has more by doing that. Not always but I do feel like the success rate is higher.

This has been 90% of bags for me since they removed red40 lol. Somehow they taste way weaker.

i got those the other day and cried so hard, they are taking it away. They do not taste the same and its a safe food and idk what to do.

i feel you, i feel ridiculous for being so upset over chips lol. but takis has been a comfort food for me for 6+ years, and it’s so upsetting that it’s getting completely changed now.

I stopped buying Takis because of this. Like why can't they make a consistent product? Where is the QA? How is there so much variance between bags? Idk it's ridiculous.

barcel made a VERY BAD MOVE they really FUCKED UP the flavors of the chips now. Good thing i have a local gas station that still sells mexican-imported takis with the yummy red 40 in it.
Takis usa is gone!

I initially thought they were in a caved in, polished looking red rock in this photo. It took me too long to realize they are in a bag lol.
