Low Calorie Food

I was sitting here, studying my life saver tin (yes tin, I think they are trying to make it into the highly profitable mint market) when I ran across these phrases:

"Sugar Free"
and
"Not a low calorie food"

Where did said calories come from if not sugar, I asked. Curious, I flipped the tin over to see what exactly was in these fruit tarts Lifesavers. A lot of man made chemicals that will probably be blamed for killing us soon. You know, same stuff that's in most "food" these days. But it also said this serving size:1 (teeny lifesaver) calories:<5.

I can only assume they would consider that "not a low calorie food" because it is not a food at all.
