I don't personally take much notice of the star ratings because there's quite a bit of information out there supporting the idea that the manufacturers are playing fast & loose with the labelling criteria. If we must have a system like this, which to me is a bit "nanny state" anyway, we at least need to have the ratings supplied by a panel of qualified food scientists & nutritionists who DO NOT have connections to any food processors, manufacturers or vested interest companies such as the weight-loss industry, otherwise I think the system's fairly useless.
