Mondelez is coming for your snacks, again.
The snack giant just told Wall Street it is struggling with costs, and that could mean less cookie for your buck pretty soon.

Key points
- Mondelez International is facing rising costs for ingredients, production, and shipping, as disclosed in its latest SEC filings.
- The company's profits are being squeezed, which creates a powerful incentive to either raise prices or reduce product size, a practice known as "shrinkflation".
- The decision to change product sizes or prices rests entirely with Mondelez management; the SEC only requires that the financial pressures be disclosed to investors.
- While the filings show a clear motive for shrinkflation, they are not proof that it will happen. They are a warning sign for consumers.
- Foodies should watch for Mondelez's next quarterly report in late October 2026 and pay close attention to the net weight and prices of its products on store shelves.
