Watkins accuses McCormick of using a deceptive tactic known as “slack-filling”—where packaging is left partially empty—to give the illusion of more product, violating consumer protection laws. Although McCormick’s tins do indicate they contain 6 ounces of pepper, the text is small and easy to overlook, complicating comparison with other products.
This case serves as a reminder for consumers to carefully examine packaging when purchasing spices. The size of the container may not accurately reflect its contents, so it’s essential to focus on the actual amount of product listed.
