Some of it is inflation. Some of it is Russia’s attack on Ukraine. But some of it is probably just greedflation, where they increase the price and blame it on inflation without inflation actually influencing it. I just wish there was some way to determine which it is for any given price increase / size decrease.

South Korea will soon require companies that slim down products to show the old and new sizes on packaging

This is helpful but not enough. Brazil implemented a similar law a long time ago... and people simply do the same as Kim Young-hee, they keep buying it.
