Not So Lucky Charms

There is a new "Lucky Charms" commercial where they take their dehydrated marshmallows, and make them smaller and then has two of the smaller ones instead of the normal sized ones, this actually would make you get less of the marshmallows (I'm assuming that the dimensions are cut in half for the smaller ones), lets test it out. A square has a side length of 4 making it have an area of 16 units squared, now a square with side lengths of 2 would have an area of 4 units and then 4 multiplied by 2 is 8 so if it was a square marshmallow you would get 1/2 the mallowness. Somehow, cereal companies disappoint us again.
