MODERATORS
Nutrition information based on unrealistic serving sizes.
I've seen an individually wrapped muffin "servings per pack: 2".
Then there's that Tom Scott video on how "zero calory" sweetener can be 4 calories.
There's a great video by Vihart about how even when accounting for servings per unit it can still be manipulated to fit their marketing goals.
Europe has "per 100g"
Thank you! That had6 given me much more to be outraged about!
Canada passed 'rational servings' laws a few years ago to this exact end. No more cases where a single-portion package would contain 1.6 servings, or whatnot.
