If you could choose -
Would you prefer that the package size would stay the same and the price of the product would increase?
Or do you prefer the current practice of the price stays the same (ha!!!!) and the package size shrinks/decreases/shrivels? Who do the manufacturers think they are fooling? |
I'd prefer the package size remain the same & the price stays the same :). However we know that won't happen. So if I had to chose one it'd be the package size remain the same, as older recipes we based on the older size.

Although it is annoying, I would prefer the amount stayed the same and the price go up. A package of bacon and chunks of cheese keep shrinking.
|
I want the packages to remain the same because we are always going to pay more.

around here, package gets smaller and the price goes up. |
They think they're fooling everybody. Leave the size alone, increase the price.--
I'd like recipes to give you sizes. I was trying to help a friend redact recipes from her DH's grandmother. "Take a 50-cent box of vanilla wafers and mush them up, then put them in the blue bowl and add milk up to the crack." Leaving aside the blue bowl and the crack, how big was a 50-cent box of vanilla wafers in 1959? |
Don't know about box size, but I bet they tasted better than the ones we buy now:)
|
Probably 16 ounces.
|
A "pound" of coffee is now about 11 ounces, a "Half-gallon" of ice cream is 1.5 quarts... did they think we wouldn't notice?
