This is going to drive me up the wall.
Old bar: 45g, of which 25g is sugar
New "30% less sugar" bar: 25g, o/w 13g is sugar
Change in sugar content per bar: -48%
Change in sugar content per 100g: -3.6 percentage points (55.55% - 52%)
HOW DO YOU GET 30% OUT OF THIS???

Lying about the size of your inauguration crowd is bad, but the nutritional content of Dairy Milk bars should be sacrosanct. 😭

Thanks to @Birdyword for spotting my error -- the new bar is 35g not 25g.
I was so shocked at the conflation of volumes and concentrations that I misread the size.
