my sister gave me a big bar of nestle crunch, galing sa dutyfree... nung kinain ko iba lasa nya... mas masarap parang may coffee flavor at hindi gaanong matamis... so naghanap ako sa ref nung mga nabili kosa grocery na small bars... iba talaga... sobrang tamis yung sa grocery nabili...
kahit pala imported brands dinadaya pagdito na ibebenta

I don't think it's "dinaya" as much as it's either a variation in manufacturing or a slightly different recipe for a different market. Only the McDo's here have the sweet spaghetti, after all.

IIRC somebody told us that they adapt the formula depending on the region's taste/ preference.
Mas masarap yung Kit Kat ng Canada/ America than the Australian-made ones sold here hehe less tamis

yan din ang observation ng wife ko. She does not want the crunh available at our local groceries kasi daw iba ang lasa compared sa crunch with the blue foil.

Sometimes, nasa pag-ship din.
But yes, products are tailored to the region/market being sold in.

The Crunch (regular size) that can be bought at the grocery is already made in Brazil. I also noticed that the rice crispies in this one are smaller. I think the one you tasted is US-made, and I myself like that one better. AFAIK, the King Crunch is still from the States as well.

That's right. That was Nestle's strategy of capuring a specific market/region. For every market, iba ang timpla ng mga products nila (most of them). Let's say Kit-Kat, iba ang lasa nito sa ASEAN against Japanese, US and English markets. They do this to adapt to the consumers' specific taste while maintaining brand awareness and loyalty.

its the same with other products like Pringles. The one's normally marketed locally are saltier as compared to the ones available in the USA and Europe. Thats why when I buy Pringles, I check if its the asian version or US version.
Asian version of Pringles usually have Thailand writing as part of its label while US have spanish.
