Cosma Snackies XXL - Maxi Tube

Good product but the price increases are stopping me from buying. Bought for 20.99 one month, 24.99 the next. It's getting ridiculous. No doubt this review won't get posted due to bias tho.

The packaging of the treats has changed – the tin is shorter. The contents weigh the same, but the pieces are smaller, no longer XXL size. There are a lot more hard pieces now. My cat eats them less eagerly. This is the chicken variant.

Unfortunately, the quality of these Snackies varies a lot. I've been buying the Maxi Tubes for many years and would love to give them 5 stars. BUT: The quality has repeatedly not been as usual. This is clear both visually and from the fact that all my cats collectively refuse to eat them. At this price, that's a no-go. It's such a shame, because these are actually my five furballs' favourite treats. Sadly, I just don't dare to order the Maxi Tubes anymore.

I only noticed something was different when I saw the other tin size. My cat wouldn’t touch it anymore, even though she used to love it. Now I prefer to buy the green tin with chicken that has the other chunk size.

The last can I ordered was already different from before. I just read the recent reviews and realised it wasn’t just me – apparently, the recipe has changed and the quality has gone down. Previously, the chunks were nice and loose, and would crumble easily when pressed with your fingers. Now they’ve become much harder. Unfortunately, I’ll probably have to look for another food. Such a shame, I’ve been ordering for many years.

Since the Snackies have been in the smaller tins, the 200g contents are made up of: 20g just crumbs 80g only very small pieces 70g medium pieces and only about 30g large pieces It wasn’t like this when the Snackies were still in the taller packaging.

All three of my cats loved this snack. However, the texture has changed for a while now. You can really tell when you crumble them. The new version is more fibrous... One of my cats still eats it, but the other two just sniff it and that’s it. So unfortunately, I’ll have to look for an alternative :-(

For years, these treats have been devoured with "pleasure". But unfortunately, since the size of the tin and the recipe changed, the snacks are now being rejected. Why would you do something like that? To change a product that used to be a real "hit" so much that cats won't even touch it anymore. It's sad... unfortunately, I'll have to look for other snacks now. For the money – the price has gone up a lot – it's just not worth it to have them sitting unused in the cupboard.

I previously ordered exactly these snacks in the smaller packaging (tube) and my cats went absolutely crazy for them, so I ordered the big tub this time. Unfortunately, the product isn’t the same or is noticeably stale (even though the best-before date is fine). The smell is much weaker and the colour is more yellow than white. Result: the tomcat, who used to devour the snacks from the tube, didn’t touch these at all. The lady cat at least ate a few, but without any enthusiasm.

I used to inhale the XXL ones, now I have to sweep them away, they’re not eaten anymore. I’m off to look for a new snack. Such a shame 😿

Unfortunately, the quality is no longer as good as with previous deliveries. The pieces are much bigger than before and sadly not as white, but very dark. It feels like they were dried for too long. They're also very brittle and fall apart straight away unless you handle them with kid gloves! Sadly, my cats don’t eat them as much anymore—before, they were addicted.

Something has changed drastically with the Cosma Tuna freeze-dried snacks. They smell really artificial now, look completely different in colour (they used to be white with a tuna scent), and the texture is now mushy. You can’t crumble the snacks over the food anymore.

I have been buying the whitefish cubes for a very, very long time. The last delivery—new/different packaging, and the contents are completely different. Different color—used to be ivory, now very yellowish. Also, the cubes are no longer as compact. Very few cubes, more crumbs/powder than the compact cubes I’m used to. I find that a real shame and no longer appropriate for the price. Apparently, you can’t attach pictures here anymore to show what I mean.

This used to be my cats’ favourite snack until this order. They don’t like it anymore. You can tell by the smell that it’s changed from hake/whiting to cod. The pieces are bigger and drier. In fact, even the packaging is larger than before. I’ve removed it from my subscription. I suggest that, if possible, you go back to the original formula—my cats would love it.

My cats love them, but the pieces aren’t all big and there’s a lot of chicken “powder” left at the bottom of the box. Not worth the price.

My cats are getting bored of it. I used to buy the small tubes but this time I bought 3 big boxes. Disappointed—there’s a lot of powder at the bottom and even on the pieces, so even after removing most of the powder, my cats don’t want it anymore. It’s a shame considering the price, especially since I bought 3 boxes.
