Sean says Papa John’s has powered up its own version of the Grocery Shrink Ray and miniaturized its Special Garlic Sauce, a product for which he already pays about 50 cents more. He snapped the accompanying photo of the deeply downsized delectable.

He writes:

Apparently the shrink ray has hit Papa John’s Special Garlic sauce, and guess what didn’t change if you order extras? The Price, still $0.49 for what seems like half of the product.

I know the picture shows a Pizza Sauce for comparison, but I can assure you they used to all be the same size, I just didn’t have a garlic sauce in the fridge.

I may be an old-timer, but I remember when the garlic sauce was free and was surprised to hear it costs extra now. Has anyone else spotted the adorably tiny garlic sauce in their pizza boxes?
