CNN articles are pretty soft on Biden, at least compared to comments on the rest of the Internet.

Most sources are only talking about his comments on Israel, which to be honest isn't that important for his reelection odds.
Also this was a really short interview, if Biden's campaign wants to show his mental acuity is strong, this isn't how you do it.

i don't think it's a lie tho
i'm pretty sure snickers, and most candy bars, are smaller than they used to be.

here's an 80s bar to a current bar
here's a list of 10 that are smaller than they used to be

The 250 cal snickers bar is one of the easiest building blocks for nutrition while backpacking. The macros unironically align with your dietary needs while doing 10-14 hours a day of moderate-high intensity activity and knowing that they are 250kcal is the easiest mental math for bars x mileage (assumed 150kcal/mile while hiking, so a 30 mile day with 2 x 1000 calories hot meals needs you should be eating 10 Snickers bars per day to supplement, which at a 3mph pace equates to 1 bar every 90 minutes of walking or so)

People here don't know how to read through bullshit. "We haven't shrunk singles or share size. [What's on the shelf has a different name.]"

I went on a trip recently and wanted to be a fatass, so I got a specific brand of chocolate chip cookies I can't get where I live for nostalgia since I haven't had them in a long time. Bruh not only did the price skyrocket, they shrunk them from 500g to 300g - it was ridiculous how small these things were. I actually got triggered and showed my mom since she used to buy these for me as a kid occasionally lol.

It's weird because shrinkflation is 100% a real thing. But he could have used a real example.
Over the past couple decades I've seen "half gallon" tubs of ice cream steadily decrease in size, for example. I think now they're 3/8ths of a gallon?

Idk if he actually said Snickers or not
I remember him talking about that shit it was about how potato chip bags are half air or whatever
People were calling it snackflation and it was kind of a meme but also true at the same time. It was only half serious.
It's kind of r-slurred if out of all the shit, that's what people are going to take issue with
