THINNER IS BETTER

I once enjoyed B----- B-- tuna salad from a can packed full with absolutely no room for more. Some time ago I opened one to find a small air pocket that got larger as I later bought more at an elevated price. My ice cream sandwich was once full-bodied: wider, plumper, longer and less expensive. My C------- Bar is thinner, a little narrower and costs more. My five pound bag of sugar has lost a pound and has also enjoyed some increase in value. Seems all my food is getting thinner and so is my wallet. But, I have heard that thinner is better so my thinner food should actually be worth more. And, honestly, my thinner self, as well as my thinner wallet, is certainly easier for me to carry around. I am so grateful to all the companies that make this blessing possible; and, many of them have done so without my even discovering they are doing it!
