Yea these poor companies artificially inflating their product containers to provide a sense of more product within while stating the actual product amount in 6 pt font at the bottom of the packaging are getting a bad wrap! Sure the net weight is provided and without comparison to another package it's difficult to ascertain exactly what that weight equates to but that should be on the consumer and not the poor company trying to deceive you into thinking you're getting more than you paid for!
When will the consumer finally accept how dumb they are and apologize to these conglomerates?!
I’m not defending corps here, I’m just tired of hearing people complain and whine and moan about the same bullshit over and over. If you aren’t researching and comparing price per ounce between brands to get the best bang for your buck, you are LAZY and have no right to complain you got “cheated”. You see, people like that me that grew up poor all our lives HAVE to tirelessly be on the lookout for this shit because we have no other choice. If we waste money needlessly, we are FUCKED. You can fight this corporate trickery nonsense by just paying attention, just doing a little math, it’s not hard, I promise you!
