Granola Bars New Packaging

I noticed my beloved Albertson's Chewy Granola Bars (Peanut Butter & Chocolate Chip) have been repackaged with an orange wrapper, but I didn't figure out just what that meant till other other day.

They changed the size!

Check this out:

They have been reduced from 10 ounces to .84 ounces!

Let us look at the nutritional data on the back:

You can see the the carbs, sugars, and protein have gone down by one gram each.

How about size?

Take a look:

The new bar looks longer!

But how about thickness?

It looks about the same thickness, but it doesn't look as dense.

As far as cost, I didn't keep track of the old price, so I couldn't tell you.

I hate change.
