have frubes changed?

I have bought frubes for years ... put them in the freezer and then in lunch boxes/picnics to keep things cool.
Sometimes children have them as an 'icy pole' after tea.
Dd said the other day that her frube tasted odd, but in that she'd had garlic olives before I thought it was that! The LOs have just had defrosted frubes at end of our picnic lunch at the zoo ... and as I fed littlest one, I thought it was rather runny ....Read tube and it said 'yogurt' !!!

Since when? I thought they were fromage frais! Or did I somehow pick up the wrong ones?

I'm sure I've seen adverts saying you could freeze them and eat as a lolly or use as a chill pack. No idea if they've changed though.

I always thought they were yoghurts😂😂😂

My son hasn't mentioned they've changed, and he can be a tad fussy hehe. He absolutely HATES the new banana ones though, maybe that was what she was eating. I have no idea whether they are yoghurt or fromage frais. I hate yoghurt and have never tried ff.

Frubes?? Went in search of them in Sainsbury earlier as I had never heard of them!

Fromage frais in a tube

I always thought they were fromage frais, hence the name FRomage frais in tUBES. But when I googled it, it refers to them as yoghurts.

Their own website says they're from age fraud in a tube :-)

I don't think they know themselves- they say yogurt on some web pages and fromage frais on others!

Yoplait

Well .... I emailed them to ask IF they have changed, WHEN they changed and WHY, and also, if they sold any fromage frais products in tubes, rather than little pots ....

this is the response
