Ever notice how the size of most products are being reduced at the same price as before?
Ice cream used to be 1/2 gallon,or (2 quarts).
Now it is only 3 pints.
Same for almost all consumer goods. Some whole grain breads have larger slices (1/2 ounces-- 50% larger)and makes fewer sandwiches,which increases sales volume.
Orange juice is no longer in 1/2 gallon cartons,bleach,same story.And the list goes on.
IMHO:
This started long before Covid, and has gradually infiltrated all brands.
There seems to be a industry-wide collusion to reduce size to increase profit margin.
It does not matter which brand,so it seems to be a concerted agreed upon method,or a case of "Follow the leader":
"If company XX can do it,so can we"
Has anyone else noticed this?
