The rule in play

The federal rule treats “sugar free” and “no added sugar” claims under separate subsections. Claim families below come from our case record; they group reported allegations.

21 C.F.R. § 101.60(c)(2)

No Added Sugar · No Sugar Added

Not decided in Franco: The no-added-sugar rule, § 101.60(c)(2). Franco v. Chobani addressed the sugar-free rule, not this one.

Franco v. Chobani held that allulose falls within the federal definition of sugar for the regulation it interpreted. It did not decide liability, and its binding effect is limited to the Seventh Circuit.
