“Shrinkflation” might be overstated — GroceryDive.com

A researcher believes that the problem of “shrinkflation” (companies shrinking package sizes) has been overstated:

“But despite all the rhetoric and spin, there are two important realities to remember: First, there is no single cause for the inflationary impacts on food prices. Second, the data shows that so-called shrinkflation — or the prevalence of package downsizing — is actually trending downward and occurs far less often than it used to or has been reported.”
