Marketing Claims
The claims about being 'Rich & Creamy' and containing '5 Essentials' are largely supported by the product's nature and its fortification. However, the claim 'The only cheese packed with 5 nutrients' is a superlative and potentially misleading statement, as other fortified cheese products might exist. While the marketing highlights the nutritional benefits of fortification, it conveniently omits any mention of the high sodium and saturated fat content, which could be seen as a misleading omission.
