Shrinkflation, Part two

I noticed that condiments and canned goods contain more water than before. Not only are mustard and ketchup runnier, but they flow out so easy you get way too much on your sandwich, which causes you to buy more. Canned soups have over a quarter can of water, twice as much as before. I guess manufacturers can’t shrink the size of the product, nor can they raise prices, so now they are replacing product with water or other fillers. I wonder what they will do next.
