    It’s cheaper to put less product in the same packaging than it is to put less product in different packaging. You are paying for the product, and I believe there is a “net wt” shown. That’s (supposed to be) for the product alone without the packaging. If you were to buy a greater amount of product in the same packaging, it would cost more, and you would complain about that instead.

    Same with chips (crisps if you’re outside of FreedomLand). The extra space in the bag is to prevent crushing, and is often filled with nitrogen or some other relatively inert gas to extend freshness. The product is sold by weight of the product.
