No further action. 2015-4 10-June-15 A product which appears to be aimed at children scores five stars despite its high energy and sugar content. The label states that the product contains “one serve of fruit” and “no added sugar”. However a single serve is defined as 250mL, equivalent to two serves of fruit according to the ADG, and a single serve contains 25.3g sugar. The rating obtained by the product and, as a result, the message portrayed to consumers, is contrary to the advice provided in the ADG and Australian Guide to Healthy Eating. 17-July-15 Rejected: application is deemed not an anomaly. The product displays an accurate HSR and does not represent an anomaly according to the agreed definition. The matter raised pertains to serve sizes appropriate for children, the marketing of products to children and the potential for these products to be inconsistent with the ADG relevant to children, rather than the validity and accuracy of the HSR system and HSR Calculator outputs. The issue raised should be considered as part of the evaluation of the HSR system at the end of the five year implementation period. No further action, however, this issue should be considered as part of the evaluation of the HSR system.
