[QUOTE="Mbaker, post: 1669755, member: 256617"] No I don't think so, as there needs to be more. Instead people should be taught that the "of which are sugars" is purposefully misleading and that what should be shown is the total carbohydrate, especially per 100 grams and per average sized serving. This would need to be preceded with public education, that carbs are effectively sugar. I hate it when there is a label in green at the front making the food appear healthy, only to see the carby truth at the back - how many millions are blissfully unaware of their real sugar input.
