You've got THAT right - they still play the serving size game.
Just like, I think, a half gram of fat can legally be listed as zero.
Add 'em up - a lot of those 'zeros' can equal something substantial in
the fat game, if enough of that food is consumed. Consumers are
easily duped.
A half a million dollars, to me, would NOT equal broke. : ))
