Food package sizes can show how the economy is doing. When the country's economy is slow, ingredients are sold at lower prices. So, companies can afford to put more food in each package. When times are better,
ingredients cost more. To make up for this, food packages get smaller. Several years ago, the economy was
strong. Food companies were paying record-high ingredient costs. The cost of gas used to carry goods to stores
was also higher. Many companies struggled to make money. They raised prices and made packages smaller. This
included everything from cereal to ice cream to canned tuna.
