Tropicana knew that raising the price would result in people switching to cheaper products or simply doing without OJ entirely. So instead, they took 7 ounces of juice out of the container. It's kind of ironic that you're just now noticing though, considering this started over 8 years ago.
Where do you get the idea that I'm just noticing this now? I've noticed this for years.
Also, this is another post about something!
