>>8259781
>reduced quantity, same price

Yeah, this is essentially inflation, without being called inflation and it's happening with virtually every packaged product.

So, when you see these bullshit 1% inflation numbers yet you're spending 10% more than you did last year buying the same day to day shit, you know why. It's a real sham.

Believe it or not, some of us don't live off of fast food.

>>8259927

Are you implying that they did this just because someone at mondelez woke up one day and decided it would be cool to make the triangles smaller just for kicks?

There is obviously now less of the center filling and more plain chocolate.

That's pretty funny, good thing I'm not a britbong.

Whats sad is peoples lack of understanding of economics. The US dollar is worth less and therefore can buy less stuff. Food companies do things like this to keep products at a stable price. The alternative is to increase the price which everyone would also complain about.

>>8260088
Or keep the product and price the same and reduce their profit margin
But we know that's not an option

>>8260099

Kill yourself, you know nothing about economics.

Inflation statistics are the AVERAGE increase in price of all goods and services. Just because your food rose more than 1% does not make it the case for everything else.

I don't see too much wrong with this

>food companies shave cost off every bar, profits increase
>consumer eats slightly less chocolate but likely feels like it's the same
>less sugar, less diabetes, less weight

This is semi-related, but my friend noticed that the larger cans of Red Bull (I don't drink it, so I can't confirm) seemed to be watered down. He prefers the smaller ones because he thinks the bigger ones are just the small ones + some water to make up the difference in volume

>>8260133

>annoying overused phrase
True, but I see it like this: I have options when it comes to who gets my money. If something about a product, retail establishment, restaurant or giant fucking corporation displeases me I can adjust my spending patterns so as not to support them. In some situations this might cost me a little more in terms of time, money and effort, but more often than not it has me saving money because I'm buying less shit. For example products mentioned in this thread include Toblerone, Sarbe hummus, Red Bull and innocent smoothies. Not one of those is a product I'd every buy. Not ever buying shit like that saves me a fuckton of money. So "voting with your dollars" works great for me by narrowing down the category of Things I'd Actually Spend My Money On. It's hard to be a good little consumer if you ask yourself before any purchase, "Am I actually happy about buying thins thing at this place?" Not really is usually the answer, and that'll leave a lot more money in your pocket if you pay attention to it.

This is not true. Fast food is one place where portion size and calorie content has generally increased over time, because customers have gotten fatter and need to eat more to feel full and get muh money's worth.

If you're unhappy with a product but you keep buying it then it's your own damned fault. And you really only see this with established brands where brand loyalty is so high they know people aren't going to stop buying it if the undercut the product itself just to squeeze a little more profit out of it.If this bothers you as a consumer it's time to drop your loyalty to that brand.

It feels like Washington gets a ton of stuff that's rare or unheard of in other states. I just recently found out that vanilla coke is apparently pretty rare in the US outside certain states like WA.

>>8259903
Noticed that most chocolate bar manufacturers have done this since around the mid 2000's. Same price (or higher price), less product. Only companies I don't see it with are the European imports I get from the Polish store down the street. Always the same size, always the same price.

Food is getting more expensive too, but can't say if I notice it overall, or if it's just because I live in a cucked state where everything costs more than it does in the rest of the country.

>>8259797

a word to the wise: anything that says "premium" in cursive letters on it's packaging is going to suck.

Think about it: a premium is something you get for free, a bonus or something that sweetens a deal. In the case of beer premium beer was making a second beer out of the not quite spent grains used to make another batch of higher quality beer. It was a bonus to the brewer. In business paying a premium means paying more than something might really be worth or giving something away (a premium) as a thank you to the seller for buying your product.

Labeling products premium as an indication of superior quality is playing of the fact most customers don't have an understanding of what the word means.

There's no filling in Toblerone. Just small chunks of nougat throughout.

Perhaps, you know, they did some market research and found out that little old ladies and kids had trouble breaking the pieces apart. Now it's easier. It's still a 150g bar.

No. The quality changes a few months after the new packaging (that says SAME RECIPE SINCE 1xxx), so that consumers don't go all new coke on them.

>>8261930
No. Just no.
They issued a press release. They wanted to reduce the weight of the product but not the overall length, so they put large gaps in between the triangles.
They'd have been better off raising the price, simply making the proportions smaller or putting less triangles length.

>>8260088
This is the most accurate answer. It's for UK sale though;
"We carry these costs for as long as possible, but to ensure Toblerone remains on-shelf, is affordable and retains the triangular shape, we have had to reduce the weight of just two of our bars in the UK, from the wider range of available Toblerone products."
However; "A spokeswoman for Mondelez acknowledged that the foreign exchange rate was currently "not favourable", but added: "This change wasn't done as a result of Brexit."
Which is partial bullshit because GBP is struggling.

>>8264838
Fuck off.
toblerone is one of those products that people buy so infrequently that they could increase the price and no one would have even noticed.
