Snack Basket Losing Variety?

I know this is a first-world problem because I arrive delay-free 85% of the time in 2019 so far. But, I mostly fly to/from ATL and have noticed for a couple of months that the variety in the snack basket seems to have been reduced to the
  • Wheat Cheese-It's
  • Thin Oreos
  • Kind granola bar (Square shape with red trim)
  • Almonds
  • And of course, the Biscoff cookies
Gone is the treasure hunt of variety like the snack mix: salted caramels, French square chocolate cookies, English butter cookies, Bark Thins, Pita Chips, Chocolate covered Oreos, Sun Chips, Oatmeal Breakfast cookie.
Even the bananas are no longer a staple of the snack baskets. Hit or Miss.

Seems like DL has a history of cycling from adventurous local brands and unique items to bland stuff, and the cycle seems to swinging back to bland again IMO.

Is it any better on other routes? Are some of the local/regional items still in the baskets on the BOS, DTW, and MSP flights?
