That'd be the salt.

GPS. Literal translation. This system is so flawed.

Take and average cross road with a roundabout. Essentially two roads we will call one East St upon which you are travelling and the other North St

GPS "at the roundabout take the second exit onto East St"

It is telling me to effectively do a U turn. The first exit on to East St would take me straight.

You've lost me...(pun slightly intended)
If it's your standard, 4-way roundabout, the first exit is left, second is straight and third is right.

But if its the second exit 'onto East St' then the first exit onto East St would be straight and the 'second exit onto East St ' would be a U turn 😉

The thing about GPS stuff is that you have to be so particular
I had someone tell me their address was in Chatswood or Chatswood West. Turned out they lived in Lane Cove North
So you put in the suburb and then the street doesn't exist

and Bankstown Athletics track isn't in Bankstown

It's the second exit *comma* onto East St.
This is why Victor Borge's phonetic punctuation makes sense

Cant hear the comma and I think a comma would be poor grammar

Nope, a comma is proper grammar. It indicates that "onto East St" is a clause on "the second exit", rather than the second East St exit (which would be a U-turn).

That would mean it has contents of 130%

Ummm, the 30% sugar is part of the 97% that isn't fat....

Ofcourse, silly me, not to mention the artificial colouring, emulsifiers, preservatives...etc., etc.

Pretty much the only part safe to eat, is the 3% fat bit.

No the safe bit is the packaging - but it might taste like cardboard or plastic.
