Container size = 750
Servings per container = 2

There's no point to put the nutrition information on alcohol since it really doesn't have any nutritional value at all. It is just empty calories. And very concentrated calories at that. Beer has some negligible amount of protien and a a lot of carbs. No alcohol contains any fat that I know of. The only thing it makes sense to put on there is calories.

however, for those that have to count carbohydrates accurately (diabetics), nutritional info would be a very helpful thing.

thing is, by law, they can't put it on there even if they wanted to.

I don't understand why the Bureau won't let them put the label on there. What's the logic?

Probably no point to some, but it seems a lot of people would like to know the carbs and calories. Plus things like liquers have sugar.

Knowlege may be power, but ignorance is bliss!

 

The only information I need on a bottles of booze is the alcohol content.
