We examine the large time behavior of the $L^{1}$ norm of solutions $u(\cdot,t)$ to nonlinear parabolic equations $u_{t} + f(u)_{x} = (\kappa(u) u_{x})_{x}$ in 1-D with (arbitrary) initial states $u(\cdot,0)$ in $L^{1}(\mathbb{R})$, where $\kappa(u)$ is positive. If $u(\cdot,t)$, ũ$(\cdot,t)$ are any solutions having the same mass, say $m$, then one has $\| u(\cdot,t) -$ ũ$(\cdot,t) \|_{L^{1}(\mathbb{R})} \rightarrow 0$ as $t \rightarrow \infty$, and the limiting value for the $L^{1}$ norm of either solution is the absolute value of $m$. Other results of interest are also discussed.
