How can a food have zero calories per serving?

Trader Joe’s Green Dragon hot sauce has plenty of ingredients yet zero calories per serving. How is this possible? Is it because the serving size is so small at 1 tsp?

I believe it is because the companies can legally round down the calories if its below a certain number, and since one serving is so small you’ll never get that

Same reason tictac can (or used to? Idk) claim there was no sugar in their product even though it was like 90% sugar or something.

The regulations make it so that whatever is on the label isn’t necessarily *the truth*, just adhering to the regulations
