Koohii Story 1 On many wheat cereal boxes, there is a disclaimer stating that "This package is sold by weight, not by volume. Some settling of contents may have occurred." well they only say that because they don´t want to be blamed by people getting really disappointed after they see what a small volume of cereal the box really contains.
