it would cap portion sizes

So the serving size that no one reads on the side of the bag is now half a cookie instead of two cookies in a bag of 100.

What? I thought that "one serving" meant "one serving per bag..."

That's not what they are going to do: they are going to charge now as much for a 6 oz package, as they did for a 12 oz package before. Just watch.

Food companies have been known to use such tricks before, raise the price some, don't change the size of the box, to make you think you are still getting as much, then cut the amount of whatever it's in the box. Just now they are going to claim it's a virtue.

You caught that too, eh? And the average consumer, reading that the nutritional content has improved, goes and eats the whole bag, thinking that with the "new formula" they're using, it's not as fattening as the half-bag-binges he used to go on before.
