Health Claims

I go shopping at Costco every once in a while, mostly for the big, cheap bags of coffee, but also to bathe in the Americana and remember the one contribution my home country has made to the world: big, cheap bags of coffee and jars of peanut butter.  Hoorah!

I noticed this the other day when I was there.  It seems that whichever governmental organization in Taiwan is responsible for regulating health claims on products does not accept the claims about heart health that Cheerios makes.  Every box had been inked out like this.
