So here's something that's been pissing me off for years!
I like yogurt. I enjoy the flavors, and it's a good healthy thing to consume. But, (and I'm assuming most of you have already noticed), some of the manufacturers, ("Yoplait" springs to mind), put "false" bottoms in the containers, (quarter to a half inch), so looking at it on the shelf, it looks like you're going to get, more than you actually do. I wonder, is there a reason for this "false bottom" or is it really a rip-off, still trying to fool us? When I purchase cans of beans, or cartons of cottage cheese for example, the contents extend and fill right down to the base, as it appears from the outside. Is it only yogurt companies that do this, and is there actually a valid reason, am I missing something, or is it just another way to rip us off? So, again, just wondering. It's really not an expensive item to begin with, but collectively, these items add up, and the bottom line is that I don't like to be ripped off, if that's what it is. (paying for something that visually looks larger than what it actually contained). So there you go, something new to ponder, and perhaps comment on, stay safe y'all, and have a great day,
Ray.
