In UK last week a discussion was about reducing sugar in food and telling us how much we can have a day.
Has anyone noticed how fabric appears to be reducing in width. I'm sure it was 44"at one time now 42" but I had a 40" the other day.
I remember my mother telling me that when she was a kid a candy bar cost a nickel and was twice the size of the ones we were getting. Reducing the size of the product has always been a method of offering less for the same or greater price. I'm 74 and the "king size" candy bars they sell today were the norm when I was a kid. They keep it up they will all be bite-sized.
