Default Shrinkage?

A recent observation that seems to be growing all the time.Like we don't or wont see it.Have you noticed the things that have shrunk in size over the last few years?
My list.First is my cookies,from Wal Mart, like most cookies the cookie itself has shrunk,yet the package is still the same just with more plastic form filler.(price up),The 50 lbs dog food is now 44...lbs.(price up).A half gallon of ice cream is now shrunk.(price up).Twinkies have shrunk,Used to buy 2 batteries in a pack for a dollar now its one,
These have come to mind and I pay attention ,because I just tonight could see a difference in height of an 'identical' oil filter laid side to side
the model made just 4 months ago has shrunk 1/4 inch in height, and just slightly on the diameter. (had to use calipers to tell).
oh yea the oreaos you now have to buy double stuff to have regular stuff LOL
