I’ve referred to them as Schlongs for years. Go with that.
WTF is Schwan’s thinking
- Thread starter dahliaclone
- Start date
A bagel dog, raspberry push-up and a mini pizza was a pretty standard meal for me.
Oof. Has anyone gotten Schwan's food recently? We used to have their classic crust pepperoni pizzas in our freezer at all times. But they changed the recipe and it's truly, not even joking, one of the worst frozen pizzas I've ever had. Just ******* awful.
I grew up on Schwan’s. Rural Iowa, I thought it was some kind of delicacy. I couldn’t stomach any of it now, I think.
Funny this came up as I was just talking about this with friends over the weekend. I thought they rebranded to Yelloh but no one had heard of it and everyone was saying they still see Schwan’s trucks (not Yelloh) trucks on the road. So I looked at their website and everything is still Schwan’s branded and their site says they are transitioning to Yelloh.
What rebrand takes 18 months??

This one, apparently.
I honestly had forgotten about the Yelloh transition. I think it still was officially "pandemic period" when rebranding was announced.
Schwan's started in Marshall, Minnesota. My grandfather helped the company expand to its first warehouse sometime in the late 50s/early 60s.

Reminds me when UrbanSpoon sold out to an Italian company, became Zomato, and promptly died away.
Still there about halfway down. www.Schwans.com
Really odd is there is a Yelloh.com link when you click and it looks like a completely different website.

I used up our $ rewards or whatever they called it just before the final date to do so - maybe end of May?
Over the years they stopped offering so many of the things we liked. I have no desire to order anything again - overpriced and no email correspondence provided for quite awhile. I don’t have time to “chat” with someone on their schedule.

I have absolutely no idea how they’ve stayed in business. I guess they could have pivoted to be a version of the different packaged ingredients box food services you see now, but even that’s a stretch.
Haven’t had Schwans since I was a kid. The whole point of Schwan's was its conveniance and its quality. It was a little more expensive but it was usually better than the frozen stuff you'd get at the store. There are tons of ways to get groceries delivered now, so if the quality has gone down may as well just shut it down.
Should have shut down when they discontinued pizza burgers.
Their hot pockets were so much better than the real hot pockets.

oh.my.god....I had completely forgotten about pizza burgers. I can't even begin to count how many of those things I ate as a kid.
