    I think the point here is that “regular” for Americans is not the same as “regular” for Europeans.

    A European “large drink” in a fastfood restaurant is 500ml. In the US, 473ml is a small one.

      I understand that. I was referring to shrinkflation specifically, where the typical regular american size burger is the same as anywhere else now and not like the stereotype before where everything is bigger in the US. I agree it still applies to soda drinks though.
