There’s no great shame in being wrong. It happens. Especially when you’re talking about the relatively random and highly personally influenced event of seeing some random product at a store. Like I can’t remember the last time I laid eyes on a bucket of cottage cheese (I’m assuming it still comes in those little buckets), but I recognize that’s because I think cottage cheese is gross and would never buy it. So my brain has just edited it out. I’m sure I actually I pass it all the time, it might even be near something I do buy, but I don’t want it so it’s just “stuff I ain’t getting”. The human brain is very good at editing out things you aren’t interested in. At least I’m assuming cottage cheese still exists. Maybe it ceased. That would be good.

So I have no doubt at all the little bags were there the whole time. Maybe not placed as prominently. Or maybe ignored by a brain that had no interest in little bags of chips. No big deal.

Yes, except I have actively looked for the smaller size servings for a number of years.

In this area they have not been available in the stores I shop.

As I said several people in line ... and the cashier in the store were commenting on them.

I wasn’t the only one noticing.
