So if the product is 25% sugar, the bottom 25% of the label is white graphically pointing out the sugar content. Printing of words, logos, QR codes etc are still there only with a white background.
Don't outlaw stuff with sugar in it, just let people know without having to read that small print. Quick glance would give you the idea.
ADDENDUM: A smart phone app that does the same thing. You point your camera at a product and it superimposes the sugar label on it, like those apps kids use that that turn a human face into a squirrel or rabbit in real time.-- doctorremulac3, Sep 21 2024 Like this, only just the label obviously. https://www.faceboo...wdijRL9dqRXVpYvMwBl [doctorremulac3, Sep 21 2024] Was skeptical but looks like that pic is accurate. https://www.snopes....mato-ketchup-sugar/ [doctorremulac3, Sep 21 2024] Squirrels https://www.google....es/cly32plprg5o.ampI bet they'd been at the junk food.

[RayfordSteele, Sep 24 2024] Are we only counting certain kinds of sugar (such as refined sugar), or are we including every organic compound with an "-ose" on the end?-- pertinax, Sep 21 2024 Boy it does get complicated, there are so many different kinds of sugar. Plus the link shows granulated sugar, if you liquify that, as you would adding it to ketchup, wouldn't it take up a less volume and be lower on the label?
Yea, good question.
Maybe this would be better as an app. You point your camera at a product and it superimposes the sugar label on it, like those apps kids use that that turn a human face into a squirrel or rabbit in real time.-- doctorremulac3, Sep 21 2024 ... and if you thought cellulose wasn't a sugar, then you haven't been listening to your termites. ;-)-- pertinax, Sep 22 2024 Probably an app that you point at the product and it superimposes a squirrel on the label would be a lot more popular.-- pocmloc, Sep 22 2024 But a squirrel on a sugar-high could be really annoying. See link.-- pertinax, Sep 22 2024 Chipmunks. They're much worse.-- RayfordSteele, Sep 24 2024 random, halfbakery
