Bluegrass_Addict@lemmy.ca 10 hours agostill waiting on any company, agency, government to give a shit about the grocery stores selling eg 200g of meat but only giving 165g. not the prepackaged ceap, actual cuts of meat. numbers are examples but it happens way too much where the actual is always less then the advertised weight.

In the US, your state’s department of weights and measures might care. They’re the ones who verify grocery store scales, taxi cab fare meters, gas pumps… they exist to make sure you’re not getting ripped off. If you’re in a blue state they care, in a red state ymmv.

I live in Texas and the State Dept of Agriculture takes this kind of stuff very seriously. You have to report it though, which might be the other commenter’s issue
