Smaller and more expensive - profit over sustainability: Migros and the M-Budget Cottage Cheese | General | Forum

Guest · 2021-05-21T20:33:13.394Z

The much-loved M-Budget Cottage Cheese in the 750g bucket used to be a reason for me to shop at Migros. As my Cottage Cheese consumption is very high, I produce less waste. Now I could hardly find the M-Budget Cottage Cheese in the chiller cabinet, as the controllers and managers have decided to increase the margins - the new M-Budget Cottage Cheese comes in a small 500g tin and the price has been increased. Profit over sustainability - doesn't suit Migros in my opinion. My request: 750g buckets back in stock, we can talk about the price again afterwards.

Hmm sure that's out? Online there is still the 750g version, maybe the volume was shortened? Otherwise the Coop has the 750g for the same price (3.75) of the Prix Garantie line, but Emmi is behind it (see the CH dairy sign). Unfortunately I find the one from Budget much too watery, I have the feeling you buy more water than with others. The one from Coop is nice and firm.

Yes is far too watery. Other suppliers do not add any extra water. My favorite are the HK from Lidl

Thanks for the tip. I'll go to the Coop then.

Yes, Lidl is great. But it's "only" 250g, isn't it?

Hi ProteinHunter, thanks for your contribution. With M-Budget, Migros offers price parity for the cheapest comparable products. You should not have to buy larger portions at Migros than at the competition. Households with smaller requirements should not be at a disadvantage when choosing M-Budget items. Accordingly, we have reduced the size to the usual 500 gram content. We have also reduced the price in order to keep our low price promise. Kind regards, Luisa

Yes, the 750g bucket of MBudget Cottage Cheese has been taken out of the range and replaced by the (more expensive) 500g pack.
