Shrinkflation IS happening! Official study finds 206 products including chocolate bars, bread and cereal have got smaller since 2015 – but it's NOT linked to Brexit - personal care appliances

The contraction of chocolate, cereal boxes and bread has led to an increase in "contraction" in the UK --
But new figures released today show that this is not the reason for Britain's exit from the EU.
Data from the National Bureau of Statistics (ONS) show that between September 2015 and June 2017, 206 products were scaled down.
Bread and cereal, meat, sugar, jam, syrup, chocolate and other sweets are included.
When the product size changes, the price tends to stay the same, in line with the idea that some products are experiencing a "shrink", ONS said.
While the statistics agency says manufacturers blame the fall in size on rising raw material costs, it denies the idea that Brexit is a factor behind the contraction.
Although the British pound slump after the Brexit referendum pushed up corporate costs, the National Bureau of Statistics said that the tightening trend remained "stable" for some time after the referendum ".

"Our latest analysis of the topic shows which type of product has been reduced in size.
Most of the changes have taken place in the food and beverage industry.
