Netizen says NTUC ‘FairPrice should change name to UnFairPrice’ after another video surfaces showing 176g salmon labelled 296g

Singapore — Yet another video has surfaced of an allegedly underweight fresh food product from NTUC FairPrice.

TikToker @ben20220207 uploaded a video showing a slice of salmon.

The FairPrice Xtra label on the package gives a weight of 0.296 kg and a corresponding price of $9.15. But the netizen claims that when the package of salmon was weighed, it was actually 0.176kg. This would mean that the fish was overpriced by some 68 per cent.
