I searched NT for "
weasel words" (words used in advertising, and/or to pad out sentences, that have no sustantial meaning, but
sound like they do) but all I found was one post that mentioned their use.
The website mentioned in the OP is rife with them. I also noted that the ingredient list is entirely in LATIN! Who does
that anymore except someone trying to obfuscate? (big word for 'confuse' chosen to make a wry point).
Since I find no article on weasle words (I'd be happy to write one but there are so many excellent ones already out there), I invite everyone who's not familiar with the term to do a web search on "weasle words -ferret" (without quotes) and have an enlightening and enjoyable read.
