Not sure about the rest, but doesn't the Australia and New Zealand Food Standards Authority just adopt the USFDA stance where appropriate? Are you saying that they did their own research in this case?

I'm guessing you are from the US. I am from Australasia and the fewer/less distinction is largely respected in my experience. I find the example jarring. Regarding light/lite, I am doubtful that this is a problem outside of t
