Food Of The Future: No Food, Just Packaging

As you stroll down the isles of your local super market have you noticed a highly disturbing trend? The boxes food is packaged in have stayed the same size, yet the total number of onces inside the box has shrunk dramatically.

Why would a food company do this to us?

Well, friends it comes do to keeping prices down while making sure profits rise. What better way to keep profits up than to trick consumers into thinking they are getting the same amound of food for the same price.

What is food of the future?

I think there will come a day when food companies can’t shave ounces off the box and we we litterally just by boxes of air. No food will be inside the box. Just a grocery store full of colorful boxes.

Take for example the benign Triscuit. Everybody loves a Triscuit. Check out the box of reduced fat Triscuit it has about 8 tiny ounces in it. 8 ounces!!! in a giant size box!!!

Tell us what you think? Is all fair in the war for your super market dollar? Or are these shady techniques ruining the trust we have with our local grocer?
