As I prepped to write this article, I kind of had to stop and wonder: is this a terrible thing? For YEARS Americans have faced enormous food portions and struggled with the ramifications of our society’s emphasis on “much”. So now with items “shrinking” and charging the same price, is this always terrible?
We inspected the Shrinkflation subreddit and saw people sharing examples of sneaky inflation. Here are some of the best:
1. Email from Chewy about new product
2. Seen by a grocery worker
3. Not the coffee!
4. Cats everywhere are furious
5. Yogurt shrinkage
6. Tea time got shorter
7. What family?! WHAT FAMILY.
8. Losing ounces
9. TP Rolls
10. Wipes
11. Minus one taquito
12. New one up
