Did Betty Crocker Au Gratin potatoes shrink?

Source and evidence

Against official inflation: BLS CPI-U (US) “rice, pasta, cornmeal” changed +1.7% (12 months to Dec 2024, a broad match for this category). The size cut alone raises the price per ounce by +17.5% if the shelf price stayed the same (the source recorded no prices). Every case is compared the same way in the ShrinkRadar Index.

What the source says

“…Smaller boxes of her au gratin potatoes, that’s what. They went down from 4.7 ounces to just four ounces. Thanks to both Nick B. and Richard G. for spotting this change. *MOUSE PRINT: Jif Peanut Butter To Go Cups Richard G.”
