Truth is completely relative for the people doing the labeling.
The main things to remember is that a horrible ingredient may go by any of a dozen different names, and the ingredients too horrible to even mention can easily be swept under the rug with catch-alls such as "spices" and "artificial flavors".
In fact, that scary label on sea salt, This salt does not supply iodide, a necessary nutrient. is objectively false, because sea salt usually contains plenty, but if they don't artificially add it, they're required to lie.
- Aerroon 3y agoThose horrible things are usually in trace amounts and can very well be impossible to avoid for food. But the caloric value, protein, carbohydrate, fat, and sodium amounts are not relative. I would like stricter nutritional labels, but I don't think people would be able to meet those standards.
