This tactic, known as “slack-filling,” is considered dishonest and violates consumer protection laws. McCormick is not offering customers as much pepper as they think because its tins are not completely filled. This not only affects how much value you get for your money, but it also makes it difficult to accurately compare items.
So, when you go to the supermarket to buy spices, pay great attention to the packaging. Don’t be deceived by the size of the tin; what’s inside is what matters!
