How exact does nutrition labelling have to be in the United States?

Asked by lefteh (9429points) July 9th, 2009

I was making pasta earlier tonight, and looked at the nutrition label on the back of some cheese sauce. It said there were 100 calories in one seventh of the jar. I’m not buying that 64 grams of cheese sauce has exactly 100 calories. So my question is, how exact are these measurements?
