Drabble by Kevin Fagan for January 14, 2020

Actually, he’s probably right. One way companies increase prices without actually increasing THE price is to reduce the size of the portion they’re selling. Example: I remember when you bought a can of chili it was 16 oz, now it’s 15 oz.

And you have to really search to find a half-gallon of ice cream.

I think your serving size just got larger over the years.

Considering they live in or near Los Angeles, what’s with all the snow?

Whipped cream tends to last longer when normal people use it.

Be careful carrying that thing, you don’t want to lose all that whipped cream!

I’m surprised he doesn’t just squirt it into his mouth.

Fighting the trend, the cocoa mix I use has gone from 60 gm per packet to 90.

What’s up with the three armed Ralph?

C’mon, Ralph, use Cool Whip…20 cals a tablespoon, no salt and only 1 GRAM OF SUGAR. . . .

yeah, my husband like pumpkin pie with his whippped cream!

Remember when you could get a chocolate bar, a bag of potato chips and a soda for $0.25 back in the sixties. The sizes were even much bigger than they are now. Production costs have skyrocketed due to raw material costs increasing and never ending salary demands.

That’s the single serving size for Ralph.

Have a little cocoa with your whipped cream Ralph.
