Hilarious stuff
Just like hamburger has no ham, the blackcurrants in Ribena has four times the vitamin C of oranges simply means that - the blackcurrants has four times the vitamin C of oranges. No one said Ribena, because it is made of the blackcurrants, has four times the vitamin C of oranges. If I were to change Ribena to a glass or a bowl, are you going to claim that the glass or the bowl should have four times the vitamin C of oranges? Of course not.
But unfortunately for GlaxoSmithKline, they were fined more than NZ$200 000 for making that "claim". And the people who called GSK's bluff? Two NZ schoolgirls.
Go figure.
