S is for "shrinkflation!"
Beloved "Sesame Street" figure Cookie Monster lashed out at companies hawking their food wares at the same price but with less actual product — a practice known as “shrinkflation."
“Me hate shrinkflation!” the “Sesame Street” character told his 626,000 fans on X, the platform that used to be known as Twitter, on Monday. “Me cookies are getting smaller.”
It was a sentiment shared by the White House, which responded Monday, "C is for consumers getting ripped off."
And then President Joe Biden himself, speaking at a White House event Tuesday, embraced his cookie-loving blue pal and called out aggressive, profit-driven food companies.
