Default Nabisco Ginger Snaps: Have They Changed?

I used to enjoy Nabisco Ginger Snaps but hadn't bought them
for a few years. I recently bought a box, and I must say they
are not very good. Have they changed? Is this a fluke? Does
anyone have an ancient box of them, so we can compare
ingredients? Unfortunately, I threw mine away!

My observations:

1. They are paler than they used to be.

2. The top is slightly concave--and I don't remember that.

3. They are VERY hard--and not in the same way that they used
to be. They are UNPLEASANTLY hard now, and they do not soften
to a decent texture as you eat them.

4. They don't taste very gingery.

I guess I'll either have to make some myself, or I'll go get
some Triple Ginger Snaps at Trader Joe's.
