Food Lableing

I have a problem with misleading food lables on nutrician. Why are so many foods labled as healthy when they are full of sugar. I'm diabetic and it frustrates me when I'm trying to shop for appropriate foods. For example many products contain more than 50gms of sugar per 100gms and they have the cheek to call that healthy food. What do you think?.

I used to work for a company that supplied food and spent many frustrating years trying to get them to at least put what ingredients were in the food as there were many things the customers couldn't eat. It made it hard as I was in charge of making sure they got what they asked for. I asked why that particular organization didn't need correct labeling and had many excuses given to me. In the end they agreed to put allergens on the package. They would supply certain meals if ordered but on the whole, apart from opening every package separately, neither myself or the customers really new what they were getting until they opened it.
