Up untill a week ago Nofrills carried these “three packs” of salmon for $10. Now the same pack contains two for the same $10. I thought it felt light when I bought it yesterday.
This comes to about $0.02 increase per gram, and a $1.10 price increase overall. Or a 11% increase in price overall. Meanwhile inflation is at 6-7%?
LOL, it’s true!
That said, it’s certainly possible to have the same problem in metric. To the extent that you don’t, it’s probably because you’re still cooking with real ingredients scooped into a container in a market instead of processed, packaged ones.
In other words, the thing you should really be gloating about is being less at the mercy of Cargill and Nestle and whatnot than us Americans are.
being at the mercy of loblaws isn’t much better
