Shit, this was happening all the way from 2007??
You bet! They've also been making the cardboard tubes in things like toilet paper larger, so it looks like you're getting the same sized (or even bigger) roll but you're actually getting less, despite the packaging claiming there's more right there on the package.
Making the tubes bigger is one thing, but lying about getting more should be a crime
Also I noticed that charmin changed their design of the toilet paper itself where it separates the pieces. It used to be a single dashed line, now it's a wave form.
I compared it to an old roll I had, and the squares have a slightly less surface area.
So again, we're paying the same for less.
They get around it by making (or picking) a smaller, unrelated version, then putting in huge print "33% bigger than X!"
Lol, assholes
Buy a bidet?
Have one, but you still need to dry your behind after (unless you like soggy underwear)

Way before that, actually. When I was a kid in the 80s they were about the same size as grade A large chicken eggs. They were already noticably smaller by 2007. Don't even get me started on Doritos.
Back in my day a single dorito was the size of an airplane wing.
The Pilgrims would ride these babies for days.
