It’s sad but true, my friends…
Shrinkflation is here and it doesn’t look like it’s going anywhere anytime soon.
A woman named Melissa took to TikTok and showed viewers some of the different examples of how this phenomenon is affecting the things we buy.

Melissa first showed viewers a piece of cheese that someone posted on Reddit and said, “If your cheese is see-through, I think it’s gotten a little too thin.”
This, ladies and gents, is shrinkflation.
Next, Melissa showed viewers how shrinkflation has affected pasta sauce.

Melissa wrote in her caption, “Skimpflation & shrinkflation…with a side of deceptive packaging! So, samesies samesies.”
