Shrinkflation is a term where the same sized packaging is used but the food weight /contents are reduced. Its the same sized package you grew up with but less inside. This is a backdoor way to hide food price rises. As we head deeper into the grand solar minimum, there will continue to be mounting losses through out the worlds grain belts, this will the way they can fool the public a little bit longer. Word of warning, going forward form this point, you will need to grow your own food to supplement continuously rising food prices.

I stumbled across an article several years ago regarding the Big Soda companies testing shrinkflation. Ironically, everyone I mentioned this to seemed dumbfounded. To this day, many consumers are totally unaware this has happened and will continue.

My advise, stop buying junk and prepackaged food. Besides they are loaded with more chemicals than the cleaning supply isles in the supermarket.

Whilst it is true, companies are starting to shrink their products and still charge the same price, it is a LIE, to claim this has only just started.

I'm 67 years of age, and have seen/witnessed these practices many times during my lifetime, however, it is the FIRST time, it has been claimed to be a resutl of food shortages, which IMHO, is also, CRAP.

It's all about profiits and skimming as much as possible from the consumer as possible using whatever is at hand to justify the rip offs.

Dont be fooled. It's all about GREED, always has been.
