Shoppers who have switched to spread amidst the rising cost of butter are in for a shock - as three major brands have shrunk their tubs, but kept prices the same. Flora, Bertolli and I Can't Believe It's Not Butter have had a few of their larger tubs reduced by around 10 percent, though the prices have remained the same.
All three spreads are owned by Upfield and some have had their tub sizes shrunk down from 500g to 450g, with some of their kilogram tubs down shrinking to 900g.
Despite the tubs shrinking in size, the prices of the spreads have all remained the same - or risen, in some cases, as Bertolli has increased from £2.45 for 500g to £2.85 for a 450g tub.
