I was thinking... I do that sometimes....
Why don't pizza stores sell a half of one slice of pizza?
I see it all the time. "Can you cut that slice in half for me," a customer says. Sometimes the pizza man cuts the single slice in half, without you even asking.
So why not sell a half of a slice?
Who would eat it? Well, I wouldn't. I want at least two full slices. But kids love to chow down on half of a slice. Why let them waste the other half, just buy half of the slice.
If a single slice is $2. Sell a half of that slice for $1.25.
Maybe there are stores that sell half of a single slice? Maybe I haven't heard or seen it?

I think you mean, sell a half-slice for $1.25.

If you cut a slice of pizza in half, it's still a slice of pizza...just a smaller slice :.)

I've been thinking along similar lines for a while. Often at a shop I want to buy a small snack but a savoury rather than sweet one.
These are almost non existent in the supermarkets, though. Often you can get a small chocolate bar or even individual pieces of candy at the cash register but single serving small savoury snacks are rare (think quarter of a small bag of chips, bite size sandwich).
These could sell at a singificant per weight premium, I believe.
