Comment on "Family Size" has no meaning anymore

Well okay, maybe I wasn’t clear. I agree with you that you certainly aren’t getting enough nourishment for an entire family - and in fact, even if you have enough food volume for an entire family, this crap wouldn’t count as nourishment anyway. And you’re probably paying this box of goopy shit dollars on the pennies it cost to make.

I was just pointing out that, like most things the agro industry puts on boxes, “family size” has no legal meaning and therefore is technically correct depending on how you interpret it.

Incidentally, another thing that means jack squat on your box of dubious food is “Now with more cheese”. If they started out with zero cheese (and no, the stuff with a cheesy taste used in ultra-processed food isn’t legally cheese) then adding a flake or two of real cheddar makes it technically possible to say “Now with more cheese”.
