$500 fine for some of these folks is a freaking slap on the wrist...there need to be alot worse penalties for labeling suagry products as "sugar-free." They could have killed someone.

BTW, I've lived within driving distance of 6 of the 7 companies within the last 4 years. Fortunately, I've never bought any of their stuff. I think thats why this pisses me off so much...because these were shops I was close at some time enough to have shopped at.
