Clever food companies to keep the same cans, but either add more water or just put less in them.

My tuna, for instance. The BumbleeBee chunk white tuna in individual cans used to have 21 grams of protein in them. Today I went to pick some up at the store, and checked the label. Now they contain 18 grams of protein, but still the same price. That’s Mareting101 for you, keep price and packaging the same, reduce the amount in them to fool the customer. Oh well. Now I have to submit changes to Daily Plate on this stuff because it messes with my calorie counts.

Or maybe…. maybe this is a food conglomerate way to put us all on diets! Reduce our calories without us noticing. Do you think the food companies are concerned about our health?
