I bought 175 g pack of salami which had 162 g of salami as well.

    yeah. 8g is a tiny weight difference here and could easily be accounted-for due to humidity with pasta.

      Could also just be losing a strand or two in packaging. It happens. That’s why they’re allowed some wiggle room on the packaging weight, and 8 grams is a pretty reasonable margin of error for a product like this.

      Idk about that. When I worked in a factory we always measured 510 g into our 500 g packages in order to avoid this happening. You’re getting ripped off and making excuses for it.
