“30 Slices To 24”: 49 Examples Of How Sneakflation Has Gotten So Bad, It’s Not Even Funny Anymore

I don’t know why I even bothered taking out the tape measure, but here I was, craving some tacos and thinking I’d give the so-called “8-inch tortilla” the respect it deserves. Imagine my absolute rage when the tape stopped at 7 inches. SEVEN INCHES. Not even close. I didn’t think I needed to police tortilla sizes, but apparently, these companies are banking on us just blindly trusting their lies. And let’s be real, this isn’t just about tortillas—it’s everything. Shrinkflation is the most infuriatingly sneaky, insulting way these corporations try to pull one over on us. They’re not even pretending anymore. They’re lying. Straight-up liars slapping “8 inches” on a package when they know darn well it’s not true. It’s deceitful. It’s disrespectful. We’re all out here just trying to make our meals and get what we pay for, and these companies are like, “Haha, let’s cut an inch off everything and call it good.” Newsflash: IT’S NOT GOOD. I’m tired of being lied to and nickel-and-dimed in the most passive-aggressive ways possible. I can’t be the only one furious about this nonsense. Anyone else measuring their food now like it’s some kind of science project?

This tube came in this box! I feel done over.

I regularly buy Terry Ho's Yum Yum sauce, and today I saw the bottle and immediately knew it was smaller. 16oz to 14oz, I would rather they raise the price a little bit.

I’m more often finding sachets of 7ml instead of 10ml. Means I need to use 2 packs instead of 1, crazy tbh. They look fairly similar in size as well, but the weight difference is noticeable.

I purchased some hand sanitizer spray over the weekend from Bath & Body Works! When I received my purchase the sanitizer spray was 1/3 the original size for the same price (sale price $2)!! To say I’m shocked and frustrated is an understatement! To go from 3 oz to 1 oz is unacceptable! Shrinkflation/Greedflation is out of control!

The cup on the left is the medium that came with my cravings box 2 days ago. The one on the right was today’s and I immediately knew something was off. Why the change? So they can save 1 oz of soda?

Apparently the snack size candy bar packs are going from 5 pack down to 4 pack but staying the same price. Shameful.

All taco seasonings, whether store brand or regular, are now 1oz. Had to buy two packets to properly season the beef.

But seriously, this one hurts. This is something you can’t really go without. Guess I’ve got to learn how to use the 3 seashells.

I went to Panera for a parfait. This what $6 looks like. That did not look like this last year. I had a gift card was the only reason why I went. I understand raising prices but what I received was ridiculous. Did not see the actual size as it was hiding under napkins in the bag.

Used to have much more, even half and quarter cherries, now there are just tiny bits and fragments.

14 less in the packaging and the caps are now easily removable which makes them more of a choking hazard as well.

75 bags before vs 60 now. That's a 20% reduction if I'm doing my math right. Didn't even notice until I was home and putting the new box away next to the old one. Can't check the old price but it wouldn't surprise me if it costs the same.

I bought a new cake mix box, not realizing I already have one from a earlier in the year sitting in my pantry. And to my surprise I realized how much less was in a box but in all likelihood costing more than it did. Anyone who bakes, knows it’s like a science and that a few ounces make a big difference. America, are we great yet?

The size was literally unbelievable.
I would have actually been mad but I found it more comical than anything, the Chocolate layer was virtually non existent which actually came out to be a good thing because I dislike chocolate to begin (the crunchies were there with vanilla & frosting) with but the size is truly what made me take my time to take a picture & post it here.

Red’s is named after the owner’s dog. I think Red would be disappointed in his owner’s actions. I didn’t need to check the weight, it was noticeable right away.

From 2lbs down to 1.25lbs, price unchanged at 7.29, SKU is slightly different but they scan as the same item in my work database. Used to really love this brand as a thanksgiving helper.
