Recently, the company has cut the amount of added sugar.</p><p>The decision comes after health influencer Revant Himatsingka, also known as Food Pharmer, highlighted the high sugar content in a video released in April 2023. After Himatsingka released the video in April, he received a legal notice, labelling his claims to be false.</p><p>The video went viral, and the company was criticised.
