OT: Stouffers Family Size Lasagna

J

JR North 18 years ago

A perenial favorite of mine when I can find it on sale for $10 or less. Snagged one last night at Safeway. I had a feeling the box was a tad smaller, but didn't really register the thought. Home; the lasagna now comes in a plastic tray with film cover, not the good ol' aluminum-reseal- w/cover- in- the- fridge style. Also, it's about 2" shorter and mebe an inch narrower. Net Wt on the box is 57 OZ. Anyone got a AL tray version in the freezer they can compare the net wt on? I want to see just how bad I got ripped by the sneaky down-size. JR Dweller in the cellar

They did you a favor. That was some very expensive aluminum.

Ask one of the "stock boys" next time you're at the store. RR

I don't have one in the freezer, but a quick Google shows reviews of "Stouffers family size lasagne with meat" at a net weight of 96 oz.

I'm guessing the new package is a little thinner as well as shorter and narrower----that's about a

40 % decrease in product. Same price? Some bean counter at Stouffers probably just got a big bonus!

Not to answer your question but, we have a Stouffers outlet just South-East of Cleveland and I have purchased those for $5 each. I like their French Bread Pizzas, sometimes on sale for $2. I did check the freezer and don't have any. I thought I'd make you jealous.
