A can of tuna is now 5 oz, instead of 6 oz for the same price . . .

And before that it was 6.5 oz, and wasn't the amount even larger farther in the past? Throws off a lot of the older recipes that call for "x cans of tuna".

Weigh a Klondike sometime. I weighed one on my Radio Shack scales
one day and it was like 2.3oz yet the wrapper said 4.25oz.
I think that's 4.25 fluid oz. A liquid measure for the ice cream, not a weight.
It gets lighter when you freeze it?
Ounce is a measure of weight; fluid ounce is a measure of volume. Two completely different things.
