The unintended second message is probably closer to the truth, anyways.

    This seems to be a honest brand. I pulled the nutritional value from their website:

      but hold on, literally 0g sugar? “no added sugar” is one thing, but surely there should be sugar from the apples, or something? a cake with literally 0 sugar sounds… incredibly unappealing…

      Well it didn’t list any apples, so they are very honest! /s

      But yeah that’s actually pretty good. Except for some of us that need to control our sodium intake. 750mg/100g is reasonably high.

    I read ‘no added apple sugar cake’ and thought ‘is apple sugar cake a common additive?’

    FYI these are pretty good for diabetics and taste decent.

    My favourites are the muffins and the fake peanut M&Ms

    You can also get packs for cheap near use by date, on apps like Too Good To Go

      48g of carbs per 100g is not low carb. It’s about the same as any other cake.

      Also, whatever they’re considering a ‘portion’ is not what people eat. It works out to about an ounce.

      FWIW I’d need 5-10u of insulin to cover a normal size portion. There’s probably enough fat in it to trick a glucose meter at the two hour mark, which is really faulty data for a type 2.

      Edit- strike that last part, probably not enough fat or fiber to trick a meter.

        Sorry I should have elaborated I meant “as a type 2 I can have their products and not spike”, also not specifically tried the shown item.

      See above , this instance is for “text that conveys opposite messages when read in a different manner.”

      It’s not necessary for it to be confusing, just conflictingly readable.

          you can read it wrong, but you can’t confuse its meaning

          Most posts in this community are like that. The focus of this community is not on confusing design, but rather on the humor offered by the contrast in interpretation of the design. The intent doesn’t have to be ambiguous.
