Sainsburys breakfast cereal

Options
Has anyone else noticed that Sainsburys appears to have changed the ingredients of their Fruit and Fibre breakfast cereal ?
It used to have (up until last month) a good helping of raisins (supposedly 11%) but now - I counted just 8 in a whole bowl !!
A little pointless purchasing for this - I may just revert to Bran Flakes

Unless the mixture somehow went wrong and the last two boxes were poorly mixed - anyone else found similar ?

    Seemingly quite a lot of people as their sales and profits numbers rose last year.

    What % is listed on the new box for raisins?
    It's nothing , not nothink.

    I do, 2 of the 3 local supermarkets are Sainsburys and I shop in them at least 50% of the time (the other is Morrisons).

    We use Sainsbury's also. Not everything is expensive and overpriced.

    Also handy they have a fuel station with a free air and water machine.

    Another one who shops there. It is walking distance for me, others are two buses to and another two to get home carrying shopping. Well, there is a Co.op which is more expensive than Sainsburys

    That's not enough raisins for a bowlful of Fruit 'n' Fibre. Everyone knows the rule, you need to have at least one raisin in each spoonful otherwise it's barely edible. I'm serious.
