  EU as well. (the 100gr. is mandatory).

  Yeah, here in Japan as well. I think really enforcing realistic serving sizes (no one is going to accurately do 0.25s) in labeling would also help the US.

      I meant help people in the US get accurate information on what they’re consuming.

        I hope that for them, they deserve that just like everybody else. But I dont have high hopes for them tbh.

    Definitely. It’s pretty egregious that they can get away with saying 0 kcal because their serving sizes are so incredibly small.

      Under FDA rules, if there are less than 5 dietary calories in a serving, the label must round down to 0, which, yes, is super misleading. Murica!

    Since it’s a spray, I assume that 0.25s is just a single pump of the spray head
