Granted, nobody ever needed the giant ones they used to sell but these have gotten pretty small. We have some old ones that we store lights in and they seem huge by comparison. Just another example of our shrinking food products.

1. I saw that!
They are tapered on the bottoms, and quite a bit smaller.

I don't know why stores even stock those. Are they a tradition somewhere? Thousands and thousands of them at the checkstands.
