Source and evidence
Against official inflation: BLS CPI-U (US) “frozen and freeze dried prepared foods” changed +9.5% (12 months to Mar 2023). The size cut alone raises the price per ounce by +25.0% 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
“…Green Giant Frozen Vegetables Mark H. reported to us that in late summer he noticed various varieties of Green Giant frozen vegetables had downsized from 10 ounces to only eight, yet they still claimed two (skimpy) servings. Sure enough, most of their varieties are now only eight ounces.”
More from the US: the US Shrinkflation Tracker has all 296 documented cases, sortable and filterable.
