I agree!
They have definately got smaller!
I remember eating these as a kid in the 80's and they were huge, like the size of my head.
I thought at first they looked small now as i've grown, but i think that you are right and they have shrunk. They are as small as digestives these days.
Same thing has happened with Curly Wurlys have you noticed? They used to be sooooooo long! Now they are no longer that your average chocolate bar.
Its all very disappointing

Not sure but I do know about cadbury's cream eggs. To be sure they were always the stated weight they used to always contain slightly more chocolate than required.Recently, thanks to a company called Sartorius they greatly improved the weighing technology and can now hit the weight spot on, saving in exess of a million pounds to date in the process.Consequently they now appear a bit smaller. I would guess the same has happened with Wagon Wheels.

i think you re right but at least you can eat the whole pack and still let the beer do its work.now that wagon wheels wouldn't fill a cavity in you re tooth you've only got the beer to contend with and pints ain't got any smaller so dont even try it mista!
