re: can sizes...I've noticed....

Misc.
...and it makes me mad! Just like a 4 lb. bag of sugar and a bunch of other items, they "downsize" hoping we won't notice, I guess. I still use the can, albeit only 15 oz., and then just kinda scant everything a teeny bit proportionally when I make pie or cake.
