I have bought this product regularly for several years. Last time I purchased I noted the new easy-to-open package and also the increased price. I subsequently noticed that the package contained considerably less product than in the previous packaging. The general increase in prices due to fuel costs, etc. is to be expected. The attempt to trick customers by re-packaging and giving less value for money is not appreciated - it smacks of opportunism and bad customer service.
I have decided to use another supplier
