LOL, my roommate has the same “logic”. She was trying to get me to buy Hello Fresh boxes, and when I told her it was too expensive she said “Its the same price as regular groceries, you just get less servings.”
i also had a roommate who had a shocking wake-up when i told him about the “whipped” peanut butter he was raving about. yea the reason it’s “less sugar” is because it’s less product. they literally whip air into the peanut butter, advertise it as “less sugar,” and then sell it to you at the same price as the regular version. we confirmed it by comparing the net weight against an old jar of the regular he had
everything is getting smaller. they did research years ago that showed consumers are less outraged by less product than they are by higher prices
“I don’t care about petrol prices. I always fill up for 20 bucks.”
