Germany: 10g Shortage Costs 15,000 Euros
The article highlights an incident in Germany where a baker named Mathias Breitenner was fined 15,000 euros after he was found to have shorted a half-loaf by just ten grams when selling it. This was done to ensure precise weighing in accordance with new regulations that require the use of certified scales when selling half-loaves. The story began when a customer returned a loaf after noticing it did not weigh accurately, leading to a complaint and an order from the Standards and Weights Office demanding the bakery to equip itself with precise scales. As a result, Breitenner upgraded all six of his bakery's scales with new technology at a cost of around 15,000 euros to ensure compliance with the laws and avoid penalties.
