Have you noticed shrinkage?

I buy OJ in paper cartons. Here recently I bough a carton and could tell when I handled it that it was subtly smaller. Checking the ounces, sure enough less juice.
Noticed the same thing with my deodorant today. Compared a new stick to an old one and it was slightly thinner.
Of course, as time goes on and your hands and eyes forget original sizes you become oblivious.

Usually only when it’s cold

Yes. It's a way to mask inflation. A 16oz loaf of bread was $3, now a 12oz bread of loaf is $3. A loaf of bread is still the same price, therefore there's no inflation.

I’m told inflation, the afghanistan failure, stagnant economy, spike in crime in major cities, and endless COVID are all just Alt-Right talking points and we’re actually Building Back Better.

Good news. Now the normally 350 pound lards telling you to mask are only going to be 347 LBS

Back in high school I took ice baths and definitely noticed shrinkage.

Fast food portions--especially beef and fried potatoes--are larger than ever.
You cannot buy a "hamburger" at McDonald's anymore, except as a Happy Meal, which has also grown. The patty that used to be in the Happy Meal no longer exists because it was too small. The smallest beef patty they serve on the published menu is a quarter pounder, and you have to specifically request no cheese.
Wendy's Biggie Size fries from 15 years ago are a standard medium now.
Of course, prices have also risen and probably not proportionally.
