So the poster got 24 ounces by weight, just as he's supposed to.I think you are reading this wrong. The OP said:It appears that they're tricking their customers. The container says 24ounces but not "net weight", just 24 ounces. It seems they're decivingcustomers into thinking they're getting 24 ounces of cottage cheese,when the container is 2 ounces and you're really paying for that!It seems clear (to me, anyway) that the OP _is_ talking weight. The OPis saying that the entire package (container and product) weighs 24 oz.,but since the _container_ weighs 2 oz., they are only receiving 22 oz ofproduct. The OP can get only get four 5 1/2 oz. (by weight) servingsfrom the 24 oz package (that only contains 22 oz.of product) when theyused to get four 6 oz servings from the 24 oz. package in the past whenthe package actually contained 24 oz. of product.--------------------------Ahhh... You are quite right. I stand corrected.(Remove mypants to reply by email)
