Bastards...
What next? Are they going to quit selling chicken eggs and force me to scramble hummingbird eggs?
It did make me wonder though - is it different in the metric world? Is a single serving of bacon 2.2 pounds? (1 kilo). That could be enough to get a guy to think about moving.....
Please consume a single metric serving of bacon every morning. Your undertaker will be grateful.

That sugar thing pissed me off too. Less sugar, same price...@BrianSoddingBoru4 I thought Ellen was trying to get you off sugar and onto that imitation crap.
In the detroit this is called “decontenting”. A new model will be introduced with lots of little frills and nice to have features to generate buzz and positive reviews. Then much of these little frills and features will be removed without notice or fanfare during years 2-3 of the production run.
So by end of production run, each model is but a pale shadow of the early production car in terms of standard features.
