Sayonara Biscoff

速報です。

ユナイテッド航空は、機内で配布されている人気のクッキー『ビスコフ』の提供をやめるそうです
さっきプレミアムプラス席でもらったばっかり…。好物なので嬉しかったのにぃ。(号泣)

代替品はオレオクッキーの薄焼きタイプになる模様です。

UAは関係ないけど、提携解消でヤマザキナビスコのオレオクッキーがなくなった時以上に悲しいです。

    United were replacing Oreo for Biscoff biscuits among their costless light meals for Y-class travelers, weren’t they ?

    Fortunately, they wouldn’t quit but would continue serving such cookies even if the brand was changed.

    Though I don’t know whether or not the taste Biscoff cookies are good, nor their cost-benefit is reasonable, the replacement to Oreo from Biscoff is just a transformation, not a permanent removal, isn’t it ?

      What United introduced were Thin Oreo cookies, looked smaller, cheaper and degraded version of genuine Oreo and that was a double sucker punch to me.
      Biscoff cookies were being served even in United First® cabins, and its caramel flavors are so popular. The son-in-law of my Swiss Doctor is a great fan of Biscoff, he even loves Biscoff Spread for his toasted breads in the morning.

      Now we are not sure United resumes those tiny amenities in the airborne. Novel coronavirus changed everything and the cookie is not an exception.
