@Uncle Jack : I would be intersted in the netto weight
The website says 10 1/4 oz. for the default one: https://www.campbells.com/product/tomato-soup/
Also, the small letters under the 30 and 40 are important. It could be "Compared to other branch X"...
[doublepost=1522155504,1522154838][/doublepost]Bigger picture here:

The right is 15.2 oz, and it says that it is 30% bigger than 10.75 oz...

"than 10.75oz condensed soup cans"

So ok, misleading... the math does not... match...

# perl -E 'say 10.75*1.30'
13.975
# perl -E 'say 15.2*0.70'
10.64
# perl -E 'say 15.3*0.70'
10.71 <-- too low
# perl -E 'say 15.4*0.70'
10.78 <-- too high

But if you do it like this:
# perl -E 'say 15.4/10.75'
1.43255813953488

Then it is 43% bigger...

the 30 can be obtained by doing the inverse:

# perl -E 'say 10.75/15.4'
0.698051948051948
which is aprox. 0.7, thus 30%

Don't you love "1+ 2 = 4" math? (I can prove that, just visually superimpose 1 over the two, like it was the stick of the 4)
 
Tru dat.

Mind you nothing can rescue soy cheese. +o(

Source(s): Ex gf was a vegetarian with designs on re-becoming a vegan (had lapsed due to ice cream).
Afaik the best vegan cheese isn't made out of soy but mostly out of potatoes (Wilmersburger).

Regarding ice cream: Some Asia import stores have coconut based ice cream and it's as cheap as it is delicious if you don't get the durian version.
 
I am not that fond of soy, so I would go for almond butter if trying to get away from peanuts. It is pretty good with strawberry jam and preserves. Never tried it with strawberry flavored lube or KY jelly, though.
 
Researchers in Germany sifted through more than 1000 files in the ledger system that provides the backbone for Bitcoin, and discovered 99 per cent of them contained hundreds of links to child pornography, among other outlawed content.
99%

Also: How was that even still a thing after that?
