Zero-sugar labels take center stage in more food class action lawsuits

סיכום מאמר

Zero‑sugar labels come under scrutiny as more food class action lawsuits target products that use allulose, a natural sweetener the FDA now classifies as a sugar. Liquid Death and the maker of David protein bars are the latest companies facing consumer complaints after the regulatory shift. The FDA’s decision to treat allulose as sugar has sparked legal challenges, with plaintiffs arguing that “zero‑sugar” labeling is misleading when the ingredient is technically a sugar. This development adds to a growing wave of litigation over sugar‑related claims in the food industry, highlighting the risks for brands that rely on low‑calorie sweeteners. Companies must reassess labeling strategies and comply with updated FDA definitions to avoid costly lawsuits and protect their market reputation.
