Marketing Claims
The claim 'Natural Brown Sugar' can be perceived as creating a health halo. While derived from sugarcane, it is a processed sweetener. Terms like 'Purity' and 'Chemical-Free' are vague marketing claims. While not technically false, they may mislead consumers into believing the product is significantly healthier than other forms of sugar, which it is not. It is still an added sugar.
