When you can make the serving size small enough, you can say there's no calories!
They actually fixed this with the new labeling requirements the FDA enacted a few years ago, so at least that's one step towards transparency.

- CryoLogic 8y agoIf it's under 5 calories there is a margin of error rule that allows you to label it as zero. So just get the serving size small enough and it's calorie free!
