Went to the local Harris Teeter yesterday and bought a pound of ricotta cheese. At least I thought it was a pound. Got it home and upon closer inspection discovered the one pound container is now 15 oz. Now as near as I can tell every friggin recipe since the Mayflower landed that calls for ricotta uses 16 oz. or some multiple thereof. I realize that it's a small difference, but ****! I'm supposed to buy two pounds, use one oz. from the second container and feed the rest to the dog?
And what about the time honored seven oz. can of tuna that's now a whopping five oz? And the half gallon of ice cream that morphed into 1 1/2 qts., and the makers have the audacity to tell me it's a "more convenient size"? More convenient for who?
The list goes on...:curse:
