Title: Have You Noticed?

Toilet paper is more narrow, paper towels are shorter in length, canned soups and vegetables have increased water content ratio, most brands of vienna sausages now contain only 7 instead of the old tightly packed 8 that resulted in the first one breaking apart when removed from the can, and all products have increased in price while decreasing in content.

Yes, I have noticed a lot of these changes...remember when a canned product was always 16 oz?  Now 15 oz is the norm.

I complained to Charmin company that said NO, it has not changed its rolls...so I took 2 side by side photos of the old and the new...they never responded back.  I think I even posted it here at the time.

Cake mixes now come for a 9 x 9 square pan rather than 9 x 11...so many changes and none that benefit consumers.

They all do it. A bag of chips is half full now.

All of the above I've noticed and also a carton of 'large' eggs looks like bantam chicks' effort.  My weekly grocery bill is usually up about 30% minimum for two of us.
