Is your breakfast table getting bigger, or is that cereal box getting smaller? Welcome to the bewildering world of shrinkflation. Rather than raise the price, grocery companies put fewer chips in the bag, or fewer flakes in the box, or less peanut butter in the jar. Shrinkflation is a retailing strategy that goes back decades, but it has captured the public imagination this year. President Joe Biden said he’d “had enough” of shrinkflation in a February Super Bowl ad. Cookie Monster, the Muppet, went viral in March with a tweet that proclaimed, “Me hate shrinkflation!” And Biden echoed those sentiments, with better grammar, in his State of the Union address. Recent polls show American consumers are increasingly aware of the practice. And while “hate” might be too strong a word, they are not pleased. Here's the full report, featuring Lindsay Owens of the Groundwork Collaborative, Jai Kedia of Cato Institute, Nailya Ordabayeva of the Questrom School of Business, Boston University, Metin Çakır of the University of Minnesota, and Mike Kucharski of JKC Trucking.
