“Other ubiquitous consumer products have fallen victim to “shrinkflation,” Quartz reported. Bounty has cut three sheets from each roll of paper towels, and a box of Wheat Thins now has 28 fewer crackers.
Under the Biden administration, inflation has skyrocketed. Inflation reached a 40-year high last month, even before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine caused energy prices to surge.”
