25 Tricks Manufacturers Use But You Won't Fall for It Anymore

- You buy a chocolate bar in a package that claims the thing is 25% bigger than its previous version. Then you pick a shampoo that has "only natural ingredients" on the bottle and costs surprisingly little. Ooh! Now stop. Do you really get a great bargain or is it just manufacturers fooling you? Think twice - marketing experts are talented manipulators!
For example, a bag or a bottle itself may look bigger than others produced by the same brand, but its weight can be absolutely the same! Some manufacturers aren't strangers to using optical illusions to make customers think there is more product than in reality. Empty space inside boxes, inflated plastic bags, labels stuck at the top of glass bottles so that you don't notice they are half empty...

SUMMARY:
- Keep in mind that a product's ingredients are always listed in order of their proportion.
- An effective trick is to make a product attractive on the outside and leave it blank and boring inside.
- Customers perceive food sold in tall, skinny containers as having fewer calories than those you buy in wider and lower packages.
- People even consider junk food to be of higher quality and healthier if it's wrapped in kraft paper.
- "Fresh" or "farm fresh" labels on products don't have anything to do with how fresh the food actually is.
- Most producers show the amount of sugar, fat, and calories for very small serving sizes.
- You can see a product's packaging claiming that it has "0 trans fat" or "0 saturated fat" per serving. Unfortunately, the manufacturer's "0" is quite different from your "0."
- Manufacturers often write that their new product is twice as big as the previous "edition," but in most cases, it's not true.
- To make their products look better than they are, manufacturers often create their own mix of healthy ingredients and put this blend at the top of the ingredient list.
- Some stores can go as far as to make their flyers look like parking tickets you just can't ignore.
- "Lower calories" and "reduced fat" sound tempting! But these are extremely tricky terms. They most likely mean that this product's version contains fewer calories than the previous one.
- "Made with..." This sign attracts many customers. Unfortunately, a product "made with maple syrup" usually doesn't contain much, if any real thing.

(Wow Thanks for 146 likes!!)
But the price is a bit high than others
@@SUPREETH. a small price to pay for salvation
Lol
Other brands don't sell air... They sell you the chips by weight.. the air you don't pay for but they include it to keep you from buying a bag of crumbs..
Pringles on the other hand are just smart enough to sell their chips in packaging that won't damage the product
It's because they package them in cardboard, but they aren't technically potato chips either. They are made from a potato paste and cooked in a mold to come out perfectly.
I always thought air was free until I bought a bag of chips.

Increase the price by 30% and give 25% discount.
Edit: thanks for the likes
that is business strategy my friend
So, a price used to be, say, $10.00.
Increase the price by 30% - we'll get $13.00.
Give 25% discount - the result is going to be 75% OF THE $13.00 - the end result is $9.75, meaning you now save 25 cents.
So I suppose you wanted to say that manufacturers try to make their discounts look bigger than they actually are?

Cereal boxes gone down from 750 gram to 675 gram... price has stayed the same....
Doug Rutter it’s crazy I feel like there’s only 1 bowl per box now and they are like 4 dollars a box! Ridiculous.
Inflation
Same thing with Kleenex. Used to have 165 tissues in box, now 144 tissues. Many other products same way. Sneaky way of raising prices.
Air weighs a lot
7:59 did he just completely ignore high-fructose corn syrup? that sweetener is bad for you as well
The moral of the story is stay away from processed packed food, stick to fruit and veggies.
Nope, doesn’t work
You’re quite right but I don’t think meat and other animal products aren’t considered processed packet food. In my opinion that’s not the way to go vegan. Plus you can obviously check the back label whenever you buy something that attracts you yet you feel something sketchy about it.
You didn't mention the fancy vitamins that are filled with cotton and only give you less than a third of the actual vitamins. This should be illegal!
Somehow it goes undetected or is waved off! It's so disgusting!
I think it is as in false advertising
its only give us idea but the end of the day we still gave the decision to made
That’s just to project the vitamins. Usually those bottles tell you how many pills it has inside.

I got wise to manufacturer's tricks back in 1969, when I was 12 years old. That was the last year that nickel candy bars were available. To replace them, manufacturers started offering dime candy bars. But when I compared the dime ones to the nickel candy bars - by setting two five-cent ones and placing them against a single dime bar, I discovered that the two nickels offered more than one dime - both measuring longer and thicker than the single one. From that day onward, I was always suspicious of "new and improved."
Did the package say how much the candy bar weighed? If so, you paying for what's in the package. They're not cheating you.
@@Normal1855 I didn't say they were cheating me. But it is still a trick. The 10-cent candy bar was bigger than one five-cent candy bar, but not the same size as two. Which meant you were getting less of a product - about 25 percent less - for twice the money. Same thing as using air in a bag of potato chips to make it appear bigger. Even though the weight is clearly marked on the package, it deceives the eye into thinking you're getting more of a product.
So your 70. Sorry if I’m bad at math
When you said “I think I need an Apple”, I thought,
*Where was it grown*
*Apples contain sugar, and possibly other things*
*Are you sure it is what is seems?*
Ok, I’m done with apples. IS THAT AN ORANGE? DO YOU ONOW WHAT ORANGES CONTAIN-
Lol fruit sucrose are not harmful
Apple need $1000 😁
I mean does contain sugar but not all sugars are harmful. Apple do contain fructose and sucrose which are naturally occurring sugar.
One more fact
Bright side uses clickbait in thumbnails for views.
I have only experience the chips, ONLY LIKE 25% OF THE WHOLE BAG! OF CHIPS 75% AIR!!!
They pack them with air so that they are still chips when you open them, otherwise you would be eating fistfuls of crumbs. It used to bother me too until I realized how much the bag goes through from the factory to my mouth. Look at the wight on the bag instead of the size of it. Hope that helps.
Especially lays
@@tiaschlake859 no but only company which irritates is lays,other than that other companies also put some air but that is too little to notice but for lays its like 40% air which just stops mr from buying lays chips
Go by the weight on the bag, not the size. Or eat veggies instead. They taste better!

Well I already knew one thing, if you see “organic” on a fruit package, it doesn’t mean anything. Same as the regular fruit, they just make it seem healthy and all so people buy the more expensive version. How do I know all of this? I used to work in a fruit farm and saw the way they package everything. Two versions, a regular package and one that says “organic” they don’t do anything to the fruit, only to the bag or whatever you’re buying.
“ just one ingredient, apple.”
Too bad I can't eat apples. I've lost too many teeth.

uh dare i remind you that bags such as chips are filled with nitrogen to keep the chips fresh in the bag? that's why they are filled with air
Zuzo's corner ur joking right 🤦🏾♂️😂
really hehehe
_ Asare
That person is right. But the air is also meant to prevent the chips from getting crushed to pieces during transportation.
X kl I understand
What's wrong with nitrogen in the bag? You're breathing it right now.
The dude at the beginning legit just took a chocolate bar of the shelf and ate it without paying.
Thank u brightside, this is so informative!
Literally any chips manufacturer:
Let’s sell air with crumbs at the bottom of the bag!
3:04 They fill half the package with air
There's something very tricky here too, I've noticed in 7eleven and OXXO (similar to 7eleven) that coffee cups are same price (and some going higher) but from the middle to the base the cup keeps shrinking xD I mean, the base is smaller every few months, I noticed that because of how it feels in your hand, it was kinda U shape and now it's more like V shape and I even compared it to a older design (by older I mean, 1 year old) and the difference is stunning! 🥤🥤🥤
They need some competition.
the lesson we learned: READ THE FINE PRINT OR ELSE
Where is SNICKERS ?
you fell for the false labeling
Chips more thank half pack of chip will be empty and it will be filled with hydrogen so that act like it's full pack of chips

@@fatkatkitkat what?...no
me:buys lays
lays: would you like chips with that air?
me: does it matter what i say

Actually, the bags are usually full to the top and the 5% is nitrogen, this keeps the chips from becoming wet. The bag looks full of air because the chips break.

Another lie is anything labelled "Organic"......I was in my local store and they were selling packages of "Organic Blueberries" and what killed me was they were selling them for $6 a package!!
Across town meanwhile in my same area, there is a fruit and vegetable stand owned by a local farm. They are constantly busy and they sell a number of locally grown berries that their farm also grows!! I stopped in to buy some corn this past summer and over heard one of the workers talking about "this years produce" and they had mentioned how their source of "fertilizer" was in question because of the pandemic!! You see their farm for years has been working with local restaurants using food scraps as part of their organic growing schedule....and with so many businesses closed or working less hours, it cut into their supply of fertilizer materials!! The reason all this comes back to the blueberries is, because they grow most of their food "organically" and their price on their blueberries is just $2 a package!!
And I know something about growing food as my parents had a large garden when I was a kid, and we used to grow all our own vegetables and berries ourselves completely organic!!
moral: OUR WHOLE LIFE IS A LIE
No one spoke about the chips pack

#17 Sometimes vitamins are added to help to preserve the food esthetic. For example, apple juice that isn't brown will always contain additional vitamin C to stop apple to turn brown.
Here in Australia we have to put the whatever’s the most of something is at the top of the ingredients list
Just add a Specific one to the list, Raw sugar. If one were to go to your local restaurant and read the ingredient list on the package if it is provided at your table then go read the ingredient list off of the larger package at your local grocery Market. Notice the difference although they are the same product by name.
Thanks bright side for telling us!
But blends in ingredients also spell out _their_ subingredients in parentheses.
I just love the intro

Wow. You got some great tips there!
I was hoping to see half-full bags of chips, candy bars that appear twice as long because of a carboard stiffener, volumentric disguises where cans are shrunken down in size but yet (to the untrained eye) appear the same. These, to me, are the most insidious of packaging. You could also get into explaining the differences between jams, jellies, and spreads. Or the fact that canned foods are heavily tuna in water, uncondenced soups, and even ham. How many remember that ice cream manufacturers switched from half-gallon (64-oz) containers a few years back to the standard 48-oz we have today? These tricks are endless and quite frustrating to the consumer.
Just change color of packaging and say that it is the improved version
