Wanted to indulge in some guilty pleasure and so I went and bought a @BritanniaIndLtd Good Day cashew biscuit packet yesterday and ate it.

Tasted like mud.

Cost cutting very evident.

My favorite biscuits from back in the day were Good day Cashew, Little Hearts, Chaska Maska, True Nice coconut, and Parle Hide & Seek.

Needless to say, quality of almost all these products (except maybe Hide & Seek) have gotten diluted over the years.

Apart from these Britannia Mary Gold was a favorite at home. Until four years back they used to taste good with tea. Now, Mary Gold also tastes like mud only for most part.

I like what Sunfeast has been doing with biscuits. Their farmlite digestive biscuits is pretty good tasting considering no maida/no sugar. Dark Fantasy is great (but concentrated taste - can't have more than two at a time).

Sunfeast's mom's magic cookies are also way better than Good Day. These I have had recently, and maybe Sunfeast has preserved the old formula and hasn't done much cost cutting to the products.
