Cut the Mustard

Take a good look at this picture. Does something seem a little off to you? When I was in the store this week I grabbed these 2 bottles and just tossed them in the cart. I wanted mustard, I wasn’t looking for a sale and the price was good. At the time I assumed that the big 40% and 50% More sections at the top of the bottles were an indication that the company was including some extra product for the same price as a smaller bottle.

Nope.

This is what I’d consider deceitful packaging. Why would the company make a ridiculous statement on a label like “50% More than our 12oz.” if they didn’t know we are already preconditioned to assume this was a bonus size bottle. Ridiculous.
