What Happened?!

My boyfriend and I grill out every weekend. I noticed that the bags of Kingsford Charcoal that we bought this year have not lasted as long as the ones bought last year. We almost have to use a whole bag in one grilling to get the food cooked. Sometimes I end up just putting the meat in the oven. I mean by the time its ready for the meat its ash. What happened? I mean if its not broke why fix it.
This has got to be the brain storm of a bunch of engineers and scientists. Your product was fine like it was. I have to recaulate my whole smoking routine because i can not depend on a good long lasting high heat fire from your product. This is why i have used Kinsgsford since i started grillingv over 35 years ago. Bottom line your new product burns to fast. I have to use twice charcoal. I am Stoking the fire three to four times more. I now have to mix your briquets with Royal Oak to get a more stable fire.
Sure Fire Grooves Mean More Charcoal For Same Results

I have been using Kingsford charcoal for 25 years or more.You made a change to the charcoal by reducing the size of the briquete with a K stamped in it.I have to use about 20% to 25% more to acheive the same results with the old charcoal.I am very disappointed with this new briquete.I see that it is good for Kingsford as you will sell alot more charcoal.I did love your product but I am going to try different brand now.Burns longer is not true at all.
