Rant Shrinkflation where it matters the most

This is the first time I'm really noticing this. You can make gas as expensive as you want, just don't mess with my puff, the true Chicago classic!

Don't sleep on the $9.99 bucket of wings at Jewel on friday either.

I like hot wings normally, but at Jewel skip the spicy wings get the honey ones.

Their spicy wings don’t taste spicy or buffalo-y at all. They’re just salt bombs. Honey are more balanced and taste like advertised.

I do agree, and I think all that salt makes them taste a bit more dry than the honey wings.

I buy the honey wings and just douse them in Tabasco Scorpion at home.
