President Joe Biden urges snack companies to end 'shrinkflation' ahead of Super Bowl, calling for an end to offering smaller products at the same price. The practice, known as shrinkflation, has impacted household and grocery items during inflationary pressure, with some common household items experiencing a significant decrease in size while unit prices have risen more than 20%. The economy is a crucial issue for voters, with a CNN poll indicating a divide in perceptions of economic recovery, with 6% of Republicans seeing the beginning of recovery while most Americans feel the economy is still in a downturn due to inflation and the cost of living.
