    You don’t go on just weight alone, that doesn’t tell you much of anything. You need weight and price.

    For me personally, it’s a hell of a lot easier to see how far your money is actually going when you keep track of the price per oz vs just watching the total price since they change price and size pretty regularly.

        They can, but it wouldn’t matter. The weight on the packaging is the weight of the product in the package, not the package itself.

            The type of packaging is not regulated by shape or size. I am not making the claim packaging shouldn’t be regulated, just that comparing weight and price ratios will help you not be tricked by this.
