It's actually kinda funny because food as a whole has been trending healthier for the past 10-20 years or so, but you're also not wrong. It depends on the specific type of food. Some of them get smaller, some get more filler, some get ingredients swapped out to healthier ones which makes them taste worse.

But yeah, on the whole, food just is a lot worse than it used to be. In some ways it's arguably better for people (certainly not for the average consumers pocket book though), but man does it suck to remember how much I used to love certain things and they're just no where near as good anymore.

At least with most sit down full meals you can, with practice and studying, learn to cook yourself and make delicious food that way... but it becomes a lot harder when you add in snacks like the aforementioned oreos that are much more intensive to make copycats for relatively little gain at home. To say nothing of the convenience factor, though (its a lot of consistent effort you could be putting into other things).
