During the previous round of shirkflation I warned people about knowing what year a recipe was from because “a can” means something different in 2004 than in 2010. And now it means something different again in 2025.

Now boxes are getting the shrink treatment too.

    At least if I bought the 20 ounce bag, that’s divisible by 4, and taking out 12, leaves 8… but still…

    Baking shouldn’t start with a Tower of Hanoi puzzle.

      And if it was an 8 ounce bag you could easily scale the recipe with the ratios since you’re using 1/2 lb chips instead of 3/4 lb. But this 5/8ths shit is just asinine.
