Change in C&S suet packaging

[jcarscadden]

went to get some suet from walmart the other day and could not find my usual....C&S sued dough and suet.  Looked like they had a new brand.  But upon closer inspection it was C&S in new packaging.  and the suet dough is not longer marked dough..just has a NO MELT label on it.  They have not changed the names though...thank goodness

Have you opened one yet?  Is the product the same?  It's been inconsistent for the last year or so.  Sometimes the cakes are crumbly.

I have received crumbly cakes from C&S and they do not like it as well. Too much variability in their manufacturing process it seems.

I have opened one suet ...woodpeckers treat and it was fine....have not opened a new suet dough - no melt suet.  I had some problems about a year ago - the suet was too crumbly but not in the past 10 or so months.  And i use the suet in a log...holes drilled in a log so it must not be crumbly ...so far ...so good.

one thing - the store I use did not have any of the  usual type of suet that i use - peanut treat so that is why I used woodpecker treat...mostly woodpeckers on the long anyway and nuthatches.  The suet dough goes in a feeder that all birds can use but still mostly woodpeckers or nuthatches

if the quality changes I will make a note of it here.  I  did notice when the crumbliness was first noted I posted it here and someone with the same problem contacted C&S and were satisfied with the response
