Yeah my problem is not that they offer smaller sizes, but when they try to deceive consumers about how much they are getting in order to increase the unit price. Calling attention to it the way that this pizza box does almost feels honest in comparison to what most companies do.

Here in the UK they dropped fun size from the label and discontinued the regular ones
We help you lose weight by charging more for less!
We did it!
Such a difficult accomplishment 🥹
Flavor isn't measurable tho
At least they are not hiding it.
Despite all my rage I'm still just a rat who can't read.
