    Could also just be losing a strand or two in packaging. It happens. That’s why they’re allowed some wiggle room on the packaging weight, and 8 grams is a pretty reasonable margin of error for a product like this.

    Shrinkflation is definitely a thing, but this isn’t a good example.

      The same package in Germany is 500g, so maybe there is an element of shrinkflation as well.

      It’s also why the target is 410 was of 400 I’d imagine .
