I bought 175 g pack of salami which had 162 g of salami as well.
Weigh another one with the package and see if it matches to what it says on the package. Use the produce weight scale at the store so you don't have to buy two of them. I have a suspicion that you're buying the package. But then if that's the case then those meat moisture absorbers also will add a lot of weight when it comes to buying meat.
"shrinkflation" or smth
That would be outright illegal. It's more likely that op lives in lower humidity areas and non air tight food looses some water weight, or that op needs to calibrate their scale or buy a new one.
see, capitalism works!
done a full circle.
but... kitchen scales are really bad. most other scales as well. i tried to find (electronic) scales that are actually precise:
for low weights i ended up with a scale with 0.01 gram precison, but it could only measure a bit more than 100grams (and also included a 100gr calibration weight)
for higher weigths i only found a scale for post offices measuring packages. the only thing the vendor "really" promised was that multiple times measuring the same thing would be showing the same weight (nope the best "affordable" scale on the market here did not promise to measure correctly, just to measure over and over the same...)
i guess the options for accurate measuring of more than 100gr are:
fun fact:
after i bought that 0.01gr precicion scale, amazon showed me small plastic clip bags with green leaf signs on it as "recommended" products for month, while i used the scale to mix just small amounts of 2-component epoxy resin in projects.

(how is lumber measured in Europe? Are 2x4s called 2x4s? or 50x100s?)
They reverse it in England, 4x2s
