New Zealand schoolgirls find there's no C in Ribena | Reuters

I have no research to back me up. I know nothing more than what I found in this article. Yet something tells me that GlaxoSmithKline isn't telling the truth.

A GSK spokeswoman in Britain, which is the lead market for Ribena, said the company had been in discussion with the New Zealand Commerce Commission regarding Vitamin C levels and the way these levels had been communicated in New Zealand.

"GSK has conducted thorough laboratory testing of Vitamin C levels in Ribena in all other markets," the spokeswoman said.

"This testing has confirmed that Ribena drinks in all other markets, including the UK, contain the stated levels of Vitamin C, as described on product labels."

Right. Somehow the only market to have a discrepancy in Vitamin C levels was New Zealand, the only place where independent researchers, a couple of high school girls, found lower levels than claimed. Perhaps GSK's Ribena in other markets contains unprecedented levels of nutrient rich bullshit.
