Unless the cream was unfit for consumption (arguably much more serious) I doubt Trading Standards would be much engaged that you paid £1.50 for the cream and you only got £1.25's worth. So Tesco it is.

It would be interesting if this was a one-off. If it was me I'd buy another and (with your phone) video yourself opening the cream and pouring it into a measuring jug. I'd make Tesco your first point of contact with any complaints and evidence, and trading standards if you don't get any results.
