Have Cheerios gotten smaller? [View all]

Haven't bought these in decades until the other day. The shape seems smaller and the center hole wider. Plus, they seem "airier" or "lighter"-- less "bulk" to each O unit than I remember.

It would fit into the shrinking food syndrome. First they shrink the packaging/volume (without changing the price), then they shrink the food.

Anyone else notice this?
