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?.

What annoys me is that even with my glasses you often can't read the ingredient list - it's written too small. As for the 'Healthy Heart Tick' - I know there are guidelines it must meet, but it appears if the company want to pay for the tick they can get it!
