You can’t get sufficient vitamin D from eating a normal healthy varied diet.
So if you want to be sure, and don’t live a place where the sun gets above 45° year round, you need to take it as a supplement.
It’s ridiculous to read labels to see if you get enough of all vitamins, minerals, fatty acids and amino acids. That’s insane.
It’s mandatory to label sweetened water as not containing Cholesterol or trans fat?
That’s outright moronic. Might as well demand labeling the amount of U35.
It’s moronic to require labeling what’s NOT in it, it ads noise and hides what’s actually in it.
I know American standards are sometimes stupid, but really?
Kind of insane that things that would make a label illegal as misleading in EU is required in USA!?
That it’s a requirement in USA, doesn’t change the fact that it’s illegal in EU, because it doesn’t add meaningful information, and is therefore detrimental for quickly seeing the actual content.
It is a maximum. A recommended limit that you should not exceed.
Ah OK that makes better sense.
But that’s not the same as a “daily recommendation” which was what GBU_28 wrote, and I responded to.
it’s percent of daily recommendation.
Not a significant source of saturated fat, trans fat, cholesterol…
Those are the ones that are illegal, not protein 0g.
The fat parts are illegal because those are not normal content for that kind of product, trans fats are also regulated, and advertising that something is within regulation is illegal. Because it implies other products are not.
It’s funny how some people can’t even spot the problematic parts when pointed out, because they are so used to them.
In reality there is no recommended sugar intake. We can do perfectly well with zero grams of sugar every single day for a whole life, without it causing a single health issue.
So the label remains nonsense.
There is a recommended intake of vegetables and fruit, but not for sugar. Not by any factual based health measure.
The only country I know of, that could have this shitty and misleading label and still be legal is USA, but I don’t know that for a fact.
I think if I saw these labels here in Denmark, I would call the police or health authorities immediately on the spot, which are responsible for enforcing declaration rules on items meant for consumption.
Those labels are not merely mildly infuriating, they are attempts at scamming consumers.
erythritol
Shouldn’t that be on the label if it was in there too? How can you assume it is when it’s not labelled?
IDK what shitty country this is from, but it’s for sure an illegal label here (EU), on at least 2 counts.
This label part about plastics is what’s called green-washing here, and is illegal unless what they are doing is a very signifikant part of the price of the product.
The labeling of what’s NOT in the drink is also under similar regulation, but I don’t recall what it’s called. But the fact that a “sugar” drink doesn’t contain fat is irrelevant and misleading.
Whatever country this is from has bullshit regulation.
The thing that is ABSOLUTELY NOT a problem is the Stevia which is clearly labeled!
So the “mildly infuriating” part is completely misguided compared to the real problems of that product.
Edit:
Just noticed, Carbs 3%, sugar 6% incl. added sugar 12%.
That’s impossible! You can’t have less carbs than sugar, since sugar is a carb. So these labels are probably illegal in EU on no less than 3 counts!!
That’s despicable. I’d be absolutely disgusted by that behavior, and tell him in no uncertain terms. And tell him it would have been better to not come at all. That way he would have saved the 2 hours he wasted on the plane.
Stellantis is fucking up so badly, they only have 1 car in top 20 here now. This is a Peugeot placed 19, but Stellantis used to have a couple in top 10! (Denmark)
It’s really sad, because they now also have Opel, which used to be a brand known for good quality, and I’m still rolling with an 18 year old Opel Vectra that is still going strong and drives almost as new, but this is a car from BEFORE Opel became Stellantis.
We are considering buying an electric soon, and there is NOTHING from Stelantis we are considering, because we have lost trust in them.
There are lots of bad stories with Stellantis cars here, cars breaking down and dealers not honoring warranties!! And extremely expensive repairs.
The only car that is worse is Tesla. With 30% failure rate at the 4 year legally mandated safety check!!
WHAT? So he chose an OS that doesn’t follow Linux standard on PURPOSE?!?! That doesn’t make much sense. 😋
The appropriate path is /usr/share.
That’s a global folder, and not proper for storing “per user” data.
AFAIK appdata are stored in ~/.local/share, but you don’t even have that folder!?!?!
It’s not the Linux convention that’s fucked up in this regard, but your system.
If you want it stored in ~/AppData, you need to make a link to it from ~/.local/share.
I’m no expert, so there may be other ways to do it. but apparently your system doesn’t follow conventions.
I think you missed the joke.

We just had a case here (Denmark) where 2 companies were putting a “No PFOA” labels on their frying pans. But they’ve been told by authorities that that’s illegal, because it’s misleading advertising since PFOA is illegal in EU.
Thy got off with a warning, but in case of repeat offenses they will be fined.
But USA is much different, and many “confuse the consumer” strategies do not seem to be generally illegal “over there”.
Be more careful, and best of luck to you.
I’m surprised that such a niche forum could be targeted,
If you can find it, authorities can too. Sounds like you are far from careful enough, considering where you are.
You are very naive, and should probably be a lot more careful when in Saudi Arabia.
If you are US citizen, you must still pay taxes to USA when you work and live in another country.
IDK if there are other things, but that’s pretty major for some people.
