Your Next Tuna Can Could Be a Lottery Ticket: John West’s Sneaky Price Hike Hits Your Wallet
If you love tuna, you are about to feel a pinch in your pocket. John West, a pantry staple for budget-conscious families, has quietly swapped out its traditional cans for smaller, 90-gram pouches—but the price is staying the same or even going up. That means you are getting less fish for your cash, and it's a classic "shrinkflation" move that consumer advocates say is hitting your wallet harder than a sea storm. Check the label next time you grab lunch: that "convenient" pouch might be costing you up to 25% more per ounce than the old can. Your grocery bill just got a little more expensive, and there’s no catch—just a smaller portion.
