    I was thinking that. Good solution. I’m not sure what would prevent them from lying though. The only way to know would be to unpack a whole batch of their products.

      If they straight up lie, they’re liable for a big fine (or maybe worse, if they’re really shameless about it), and buying a few things to weigh isn’t that impractical. IIRC a chip company in Canada got caught a bit ago skimping, starting with someone who weighed a bag at home.
