Erma - Forget the old rules that you learned in school about ounces, pounds, etc. Ice cream is no longer a gallon but ounces less. Orange juice was always in a half gallon container. Now we are told it is easy to pour and you get 5 ounces less for a higher price. Remember the 5-pound sugar bag? It is now 4 pounds and again costs more. Replacing toilet tissue is a daily occurrence with the large rolls that we buy. The Madison Ave. master performance of gluten free and organic products that cost much more and the medical and consumer products just live for greater profits. Ideas that are here today and will be gone tomorrow.
