What are your opinions about the size that snacks were "back then" compared to today?

Like Oreo’s for example, they used to be $2.99-$3.99 and they had a good variety. Now they go for $4.99 and they sized the portion down as well :/ Same goes for other favourite kinds, Chips Ahoy, cookies wafers, etc. Do you know of any other snacks that used to be around? Or have changed over the years? Same goes for taste, Chips Ahoy, don’t have that sweet and I-Want-More favoritism, and how they were in a wrapped plastic, now they’re in a plastic holder instead, better idea?

that is because of the air the chips need to stay fresh I’ve been told anyways.

Answer #4

True^ but by the price of snacks, you’re not really getting a full bag of deliciousness :< Well more like what it’s worth, a way to get you to buy it when it wouldn’t last long unless you have it everyday.

Answer #5

Ugh I totally agree! Everything decreases and the money worth increases…”I don’t wanna live on this planet anymore” just saying, it’s crazy how everything goes up but the portion is less.

Answer #6

Plus we have Big ObamaCare Taxes being added on Jan 1, ‘13’14…….
