Ice Blocks Missing from Woolworths, Coles and IGA - National Conspiracy

Pandabargain on 08/06/2022 - 17:55

Has anyone else noticed that Woolworths, Coles and IGA have all stopped selling store brand icy poles / ice blocks?

https://www.woolworths.com.au/shop/productdetails/563170/woo…

I've called Coles and Woolies and both said they don't intend to stock them anymore. Such a shame as I loved these and would buy 5-6 boxes a week…

I would appreciate it if you could call Woolies and request they restock this product. You can call them on 1300 767 969, or alternatively, fill out the online form from this web page https://www.woolworths.com.au/shop/page/help-and-support-faq…

Thanks for your help with this.

    A lot of ice cream vanished due to the floods:

    Norco's ice-cream factory, head office and rural store in South Lismore were inundated with floodwater

    I wonder if the ice block issue is similar?

        In time no doubt..

        I'm confident that company supplied the homebrand ice-creams which have disappeared, and it appears they probably also made those ice blocks:

        It will take a while to get enough breeding stock…

    Thought it was another post from that onion fellow from the subject line 🤔

    I also noticed this, quite like the Coles home brand ones.

    5 to 6 boxes a week?! Have you considered making your own in that case?

      Probably reselling them….

    • Pandabargain on 08/06/2022 - 19:30

      Yes but they just aren't the same…

        Add twice as much sugar as you think you'd need - that's their secret.

        • iand on 08/06/2022 - 22:10

          twice as much as you think you need then double it 😃

      • SF3 on 08/06/2022 - 23:50

        I've called Coles and Woolies

        Your craving is strong.

        Silverlining, sugar detox.

    They probably saw a poll saying they were underpaid and went on strike.
