On a similar veinThe phrase 'UK's number one_____ [fill in blank] product’ pisses me right off, I can’t believe people can still get away with it. Surely if they meant ‘the best at its job’ or ‘best selling’ or ‘statistically most popular’ they’d say so, right? But no, it’s meaningless. It’s part of the same school of thought that publicises ‘75% of women would recommend the product*’ (*based on a sample of 116 people who work for the company, except in tiny, tiny print for .3 of a second at the bottom of the screen).
And also women's facecare products that are supposed to make wrinkles die: They just. Don't. Work. So how are they allowed to say they do? How is that not illegal?
