Sure, it's a misleading label, but lets not pretend anyone is gonna accidentally eat 100+ calories of it.

Let's make a liberal estimate. Lest say it's actually 3cal/serving as listed. Let's say you spray it for 5s (way more than I've ever sprayed a bottle of PAM). That's 60cal for the entire sheet pan of whatever it is you're making. If you're gonna eat the full sheet pan of cookies you are baking I hate to break it to you, but the 60cal of cooking spray probably isn't moving the needle. And that's the most liberal application I can think of.

Have you used aerosol cooking spray before? Are you using enough to make a puddle in your frying pan? Cause if so you're using it wrong my guy.

Well at least we agree on the foundational point then I guess. While agree that spray oil alone isn’t making or breaking anyone’s diet (and yes I have used it before) that again is beside the point. The fact that companies are even allowed to do, at all, is the entire point. It’s almost farcical that a company would, with a straight face, try to claim an oil product is 0 cal. Especially given the impractical serving sizes they’ve had to use to get that number. .25 second spraying would be enough to cover the baking paper area for one cookie at best.
