I don't know if it's because of where I am (NJ), but did A&B change their size gefilte fish? Last week I was only able to find a twin pack and the loaves were smaller than what I'm used to. I buy the orange/blue one NOT family size.

And I assume they charge the same price?

This is such a wide spread trick as manufacturers shrink contents gradually and often leave the boxes the same size.

That's what I meant. In some way or another they try to trick e shopper into realizing they aren't getting less for the same or more money.

Sometimes the amount of vacant space is laughable.

Or they subtly change the shape so it doesn't look smaller.

It's not a trick- the twin packs come with 2 smaller loaves the single loaves have remained the same sz as far as I know

PGK is correct the "twin loaves" are always smaller.

Good to know! I should look out for them as sometimes I do need a smaller loaf.
