According to a survey conducted in March 2024, 61 percent of U.S. shoppers observed multiple items they typically purchased at grocery stores becoming smaller without a corresponding decrease in pricing. This phenomenon is commonly referred to as shrinkflation, which involves a combination of inflation and a reduction in the weight or size of products.
