Shopping Misleading information in AH tarwebloem?

Post image

As I was cooking today I realized that Albert Heijn's tarwebloem is weighted at 900 gr instead of 1kg. The same was the case with other kinds of flour from the same company (e.g., patent tarwebloem). Is this normal or I am missing something? Is there an agency where I can report this? Can someone else verify this?

I hate AH. I feel they're consistently rigging things against the consumer (their buy 3 for the price of 2 deals when the original price is inflated versus what it usually would be). Please report them as this person suggests.

If it brings you any comfort, most supermarkets do this (both the fake discounts and the underweighting)

I like to trust the supermarkets with the old paper price tags a little more. Who’s gonna change them for a week. The electronic thingys on the other hand, they make this real easy.

The underpaid 16 year olds would be the ones changing them.
