Domspeak Forums Thread Like Summary - Shrinkflation Bacon

Has anyone else noticed that a pack of bacon used to be a pound and is now 12 ounces? My girl likes to cook and is frustrated that her recipes are thrown off. Canned goods like tomato sauce have been quietly reduced in ounces. I walked out of the store the other day with three bags. There was no alcohol or meat. It was basically produce that amounted to a good salad and a nice bottled water. It came to fifty bucks! Now there are talking about the price of meat going up. Something has to give here.

I've noticed that too. The price over everything is through the roof. I make breakfast and pack lunches for my grandkids & son in law most weekdays. I host family dinners no less than twice a week. Although my daughter and her husband have good jobs, between the soaring cost of food and the private tuition they picked up when public schools got loony with inappropriate teaching, they would be having to cut back a good bit if I didn't help up. This is on a nurse and engineer's paychecks. The economy is harming the every day person, especially young families. It is impossible to imagine that anyone would vote for Biden under these circumstances.
