Shame that the record profits companies are having aren't consistent with that "costs going up is what's pushing shrinkflation" theory of yours but are absolutelly consistent with the theory that they're trying to get away with increasing their profit margins by reducing material costs (by using less materials) whilst selling at the same price using tricks to deceive human perception of how much product comes in a package.
