Did Nathan's pretzel dogs shrink?

Source and evidence

Against official inflation: BLS CPI-U (US) “frozen and freeze dried prepared foods” changed +4.9% (12 months to Dec 2020). The size cut alone raises the price per piece 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

“…opened the new one, he saw the container was only about half full. *MOUSE PRINT: Nathan’s Pretzel Dogs Nathan’s made a dramatic change to their pretzel dogs. Instead of five in a package, they reduced the number to just four. Thanks to Dan K. for spotting the switch.”
