I'm not sure it's quite accurate.

Milo's about fifty percent sugar.
matched
The reason that it does have the rating is because Nestle, the products company, says that it's designed to be eaten, you know, three teaspoons with 200 mils of skim milk, which is not how most people I know eat Milo.
matched
That's right.
matched
She's saying that the government should be pressing ahead with changing this rule.

Like there's a number of loopholes within the broader health star rating system, but they experts at kind of the George Institute think, well, this is one that we can actually do quite a quick fix.
matched
This is a really simple loophole to take out.
matched
And and it doesn't actually affect that many products, but for the ones that it does, they're kind of making the case that by having just a handful of products that are like that, it undermines confidence in the whole system.
matched
That's right.
matched
It does affect a few, but I would say probably one of the more concerning aspects is that there's no separation between added sugars and natural sugars.
matched
So the the rating doesn't distinguish between those two.
matched
That's right.
matched
Or products that are really high in added sugar are getting away by manufacturers kind of reconfiguring, you know, the ingredients that are in something so they add in something like fibre, so they boost their rating, but then, you know, dairy products which have naturally occurring lactose, they get a low rating.
matched
I think that's definitely one of the main priorities.
matched
The other priority I would say is the added sugar kind of loophole.
matched
I would say that in you know, in some instances it's a good rating.
matched
If you're comparing products within the same category, so if you're kind of gonna compare a yogurt to another yogurt, it might be okay.
matched
In that case, that's how it's designed.
matched
To do it across the supermarket, you know, picking up a snack in one aisle and something else in another aisle that's completely different, that's in some cases not going to work 'cause it's not how it's designed.
matched
But I would still be looking at the nutritional panel on the back if you wanna know what's really on the right.
