Half full, or half empty?

Big on style, little of substance - the short-changed content problem. Common enough here, and an old marketing trick which should be outlawed. But I doubt it will be as consumer deception and our rights are not exactly priority targets. However, despite the oversized box, the contents are quite tasty - but forget how much I paid for it.

Yeah, they should be made to make it clearer what you're actually getting. Maybe by putting the weight in large numbers on the front of the box?

[pgrahmm]

It does say 160g on the front....about 5oz... kind of like buying cotton candy....although solar dried would seem to indicate no liquid content....5oz of anything isn't much.....

Damn their eyes.

Half assed maybe.

I was thinking about packaging the other day. They sell a small gross weight in an oversized package, which means their packaging costs due to the extra packaging material are greater and the transport costs increase, as less packages per carton due to the larger size of each package going into each carton. I was wondering how much we pay for the additional packaging and transport costs that were only necessary to give us the buyers the illusion of buying a greater quantity.
