Even though prices have shot up for things like almond, soy, and oat milk, the size of refrigerated versions have always been 1.89L.
But I noticed some strangeness on the Walmart (Canada) website while building my grocery list where one brand, that is priced less than another brand, had a higher cost per 100ml.
As I looked into it, I noticed that several varieties have gone from 1.89L to 1.75L.
I’m getting real sick and tired of this.
It makes me freak out about the inefficiencies too. We need to be reducing packaging, reducing logistics, reducing waste, and shrinkflation increases all these things. Capitalism is so single-mindedly awful I want to scream
