Marketing Brand Name Crap

I always wondered why companies try new things. Some are really bad. Take one of my all-time favorite candy bars... Nestle brand Coffee Crisp. Now I love the original flavored ones. Awesome bar. Sometimes I wolf 'em down fast, and sometimes I like to split them apart and eat them layer by layer. Delicious. The other day, I go out on a limb and I try a Nestle brand French Vanilla Coffee Crisp. Big mistake. This thing tastes like a total piece of cockapoo brand doggie dung. There is more. The NEstle brand Triple Mocha Coffee Crisp. Maybe they thought that since everyone nowadays is a bunch of bedwetters that can't be happy with a normal cup of Java and has to have triple mocha latte cinnamon twist chocolate sprinkled gut rot instead, they should make chocolate bars that taste the same.

Just say no to flavors that taste like ass...

It gets even worse than that. Raspberry flavored Nestle brand Kit Kat bars? What in the good name of Bob is that? Frig, the bars taste good already, and I am sure they sell enough of them as it is... so why do they need to blow the market open with stupid flavored options? I bet sales of *real* Nestle brand Coffee Crisps are down and those arseheads can't figure out why...

Alright, I have to agree totally with the explanation Halfwaymaggie gave. Surround your top selling product with other rubbish and there is no room left for the competition. It's classic. Do we really think that Coke is going to make a mint off of Diet Sugar Free Vanilla flavored Coca-Cola brand soda? Not on this ship mister. But if they take up 2 shelves in the cooler with the rubbish, there is less room for Pepsi brand sodas...
