On the one hand it does have an asterisk and says <0.5g at the end of the label.
On the other hand changing the serving size to ~1g would clear this up so there is a lot of rules lawyering going on here.
Especially since none of their consumers eats 1 of these things in a serving...
- crazygringo 3y agoThey're breath mints, not candy. Is 1 at a time not enough? Is it 2 or 3?
- usea 3y ago> They're breath mints, not candy. Based on what? I think they're definitely candy.
- crazygringo 3y agoCommon sense? Or if you need proof that it's not just me: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tic_Tac https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tic_Tac "Product type: Breath mints" Actual candies tend to be larger, like peppermints, or else you eat a bunch at once, like Nerds. Tic Tacs literally come in a tiny sturdy dispenser box because they're breath mints designed to keep with you for days/weeks. Not a cardboard box to consume in one or two sittings.
- avree 3y ago"Hard mints are hard candies or boiled sweets flavored with mint. Examples of hard mints include starlight mints, also known as pinwheel mints, white, circular, with red or green rays emitting from the middle; candy canes; humbugs; and brand name mints such as Altoids and Ice Breakers."
- Guvante 3y agoIt is 2 or 3 from my experience since the tiny size means they don't have enough of an impact if you have only one. Also they sell non-mint ones... My point is a serving size of 2 would avoid this skullduggery and be representative of how much people eat anyway. Just be honest and say there is 1g of sugar in 1g of tic tacs.
