Has anyone noticed that a Mrs. Butterworth bottle has a resemblance to a Frangelico bottle? BTW, there’s a Mrs. Butterworth’s Auto Tags agency just north of Philadelphia. It’s run by a lady whose actual last name is Butterworth – she used to be a township supervisor in that area.
If they use thicker glass, that would reduce the amount of syrup the bottle can hold. Or they can make the bottom of the bottle concave, like wine bottles (they call it the punt). Anything to disguise the fact that they’re charging more and giving you less.
"Moderately Confused is an extension of my daily thinking routine, says Jeff Stahler. "I'm used to observing the front pages of the news and commenting with a cartoon. But every day, the rest of the paper tracks the culture, and all of those stories are rich for commentary, too. This panel gives me an outlet for observing those back pages of the paper that I enjoy reading as well." Stahler's Moderately Confused was a finalist for the National Cartoonists Society's Division Award for Best Newspaper Panel in 2005.
A native of Bellefontaine, Ohio, award-winning editorial cartoonist Jeff Stahler graduated from the Columbus College of Art and Design. He resides in Columbus, Ohio, with his family.

Reminds me of the $18 to $30 million theft of maple syrup in Quebec this year.

Mrs. Butterworth is showing what will happen if you use too much of her product.

ask her when she’s due

@1MadHat
That is true of so many of our products. A 6 1/2 ounce can of tuna is now 4 1/2 or 5 ounces. Same price. No inflation, costs the same per tin.

Thank you! Nobody believes me when I tell them this. No warning – just all of sudden they are smaller. Takes 2 cans to do what one did before.
