> Are we pretending that polysaccharides are the staff of life, but when you get down to disaccharides they become the Devil? Devil or not devil is off topic: it's not about not-devil or devil, it's about the difference between bread and cake. Which isn't a value judgement at all. But that is a line that will unsurprisingly be drawn differently in different cultures. The legal issue isn't putting too much sugar in a product, it's putting much sugar in there and then labeling that product in a way that is deceptive in the local language (and in this case a tax angle, but it could be a court issue even without that).
