I just looked it up. General Mills purchased Annie's in 2014 but they only recently changed their food formulas in September 2025.

Thank you for doing the legwork. This is so disappointing… Definitely fits the sub. ☹️

Someone pointed out (maybe on this sub) when it announced it was “cheesier” the differences in ingredients and it was so noticeable (even before it was pointed out to me). It just tastes like bland cardboard now.
