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

Welcome to "You Don't Matter, Give Up."
This community is inspired by the concept of text that conveys opposite messages when read in a different manner. While it shares similarities with !dontdeadopeninside@lemmy.ohaa.xyz and !nosafetysmokingfirst@sh.itjust.works in that all of these play with the idea of misreading text, YDMGU specifically focuses on phrases that can be read in both directions, with each interpretation being valid and opposites of each other.
Important Note: This subreddit is not a place for discussions about suicide or self-harm. If you or someone you know is struggling with these feelings, we urge you to seek help. Please visit !suicidewatch@lemm.ee or reach out to appropriate resources for support. Because you matter, don't give up.

This seems to be a honest brand. I pulled the nutritional value from their website:
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.
This product should be called No Added Apple, Salt Cake
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..
I want a sugar pack that is labled "Only added sugar"
Now with 100% PURE ADDED SUGAR
but also "no added sugar"
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.
That packaging is confusing to you?
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.
