    It is not only the shrinkflation effect on consumers that is a problem
    For every 1000kg of marmalade they produce they now have to manufacture 2667 jars, lids and labels instead of just 2000. I call that environmentally irresponsible.
    Not only that, please read the ingredients part of the label, you will notice the fruit content of the product has been reduced from 47% to just 35% – that’s a reduction of a bit over 25%. What has replaced all that fruit? I discovered this after noticing a subtle change in the flavour, it seems a bit sweeter. Not good, HJ Heinz Co Aus Ltd.!

    I similarly are extremely disappointed to find the jar size significantly reduced to 375g but the price remaining more or less the same as it was for 500g. No longer on my shopping list….

    If they, the manufacturer, think they can make better profit margins by reducing a jar of their jams whilst charging a similar price as the ‘previous’ 500g sizes, they need to seriously think again! Do they honestly think that consumers are dumb?
    I for one will certainly be looking for alternatives.

    + PROS: Taste
    - CONS: Expense; Consumers taken for idiots!

    Another way of deceiving the public, reduce the jar size and charge almost the same price.
    375g is not a convenient size jar. Please reinstate the 500g jar and price it accordingly!

    + PROS: Great product
    - CONS: Hopeless jar size

    Feel totally deceived. Have been buying Rose’s for 30 years. Size has just been decreased to 375ml. In this era of trying to reduce packaging, this is a counter-intuitive decision. It is now off my shopping list.

    marmalade and jams fine, however they have reduced the size from 500g to 375g. Very crafty. I have been buying them for many many years. Will not buy again.

    + PROS: none
    - CONS: jar size reduced

    Another rip-off perpetred on the consumer. Some manufacturers have no shame. Well, I for one will never purchase this brand again.

    + PROS: You're having a laugh.
    - CONS: Smaller container, less value.

    Have been buying Roses marmalade for years because I liked the product and up until recently the 500gm jar was around $4.50 on special. Now it is a 375gm jar (25% less) for $4.75!! This is unacceptable shrinkflation Heinz Watties.

    + PROS: Nice product
    - CONS: Very significant downsizing for similar price

    Just opened jar of Roses Lime Marmalade. Jar said made in NZ from imported and local ingredients. This was a shock to find that it was very runny and tasteless and not much fruit.
    Used this product for 60 years. Using original jar but poor quality.

    No longer 500 g. Tastes sweeter and 375 g. Why change a good thing?
