Marketing Claims
The marketing claims are factually supported by the ingredient list and nutritional information. 'Gluten Free' is accurate as the product is corn-based. 'Cholesterol Free' is confirmed by the nutrition panel. The presence of cheese and herbs, though in small quantities (0.7% and 0.4% respectively), makes the claim technically true. The 'Non GMO' claim is presented as a certification.
