This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

In Sweden (and perhaps all of EU?) it is not allowed to say "no x" if there's normally no "x" in that type of product, e.g glutenfree butter.

Oh, it's forbidden. I always wondered why no company did that.

But why do they put "vegan" on apple juice then? Does it mean it's bug-free?

Some apple juices contain an ingredient called isinglass which is made from dried fish bladders. And some apples may be waxed with beeswax (from bees) or shellac (from bugs) before being juiced.
