Did you know that how big a spice tin is can make a big difference? Some famous spice companies, like McCormick & Co., are getting sued because of how big their tins of ground pepper are.
A small company called Watkins Inc. says that McCormick reduced the amount of pepper in their tins by 25% but kept the tin size the same. So, even though the tins look the same, you’re getting less pepper.
But why does this matter? It’s about fairness and honesty. Watkins says McCormick is tricking people by making them think they’re getting more pepper in each tin than they really are. McCormick’s tins are hard to see through, so you can’t tell how much pepper is inside. In contrast, Watkins sells smaller tins with the same amount of pepper as McCormick’s.
