Did Pillsbury change their cookie dough recipe last year?

I occasionally snack on it and noticed it having a different taste in the past few months-kind of an extra smooth texture and the sweetness of it is somehow changed. I know...this isn't a life-changing issue but just wondered if anyone else noticed this.

They did alter their recipes slightly. The reason was to get rid of trans fat in their cookie dough. The smoothness is due to addition of dough conditioners to improve the texture due to the new shortening required.

awhile back there was a cookie dough recall (i think it was chocolate chip, but dont remember the maker) there was some bacteria in the dough and i guess people who were eating the dough raw were getting sick. maybe raw egg is the missing ingredient that was in the dough before. just a guess. suki
