Well, all packages contain what they have in there (i.e. 5.5 oz, etc.)
The packages may need downsizing, which I can agree with, but the
government taking action against them? What agency should look at that?
If you are too naive to read the package, and look at the numerous
warnings / labels /etc., you do so at your own peril. That is not
governments role, unless you like to have government in every part of
your life, the market, etc.
