MODERATORS
Shrinkflation has been around for a long long time, remember it in the early 2000s, and I bet it happened before then too.
Until we get bills to address this, banning reducing serving size without a large label, it will continue
In fairness there was a time where society seem to have a comical abundance.
Regarding affordability I would really prefer some crown corp grocer that sells the necessities. I really don't want to see or hear a few hundred grown ass adults earning 215k a year shouting at each other about font sizes for the next few years only to leave a gaping loop hole that gets exploited.
Western society continues to have a comical abundance. It's just shared less equitably than it's been in a century.
