They’ve f**ked around with Toblerone bars and people are furious
We all thought Donald Trump might be the biggest threat in North America, but no – Mondelez International has increased the gap between the peaks to reduce the weight of the bars due to a rise in the cost of ingredients. Twitter had a few things to say to these Toblerone-touching arseholes.
It looks like something else now.
The new #Toblerone.
Wrong on so many levels. It now looks like a bicycle stand.#WeWantOurTobleroneBack. pic.twitter.com/C71KeNUWF1— James Melville (@JamesMelville) November 8, 2016

#toblerone So, kept the size of the packaging while delivering less chocolate?
For a maximum minus score tell us it was a health move.

Actually I think the new #Toblerone reflects the current world in 2016. Less peaks, longer, unsatisfying troughs. pic.twitter.com/oceVO5dWCH

In summary:
UPDATE: There is one positive aspect to this situation.
OK – I've put it to the test. The new #Toblerone looks underwhelming at best BUT it makes the perfect toast rack… pic.twitter.com/tdROkdwsX7
