请问OG12中第17题句子的含义

正确句子为：The commission has directed advertisers to restrict the use of the word “natural” to foods that do not contain color or ?avor additives, chemical preservatives, or anything that has been synthesized.

that从句修饰foods（说不含***等东西的食品），我的疑问在于，既然不含那些添加剂之类的了，就是天然食品natural foods，可句子却说restrict the use of the word "natural" to such foods...有点搞不懂，句子结构不复杂，却一直纠结于句意...哪位可帮解惑，多谢！

This simply a difference between 100% and 90%. If natural foods is defined as foods that do not contain color or ?avor additives, chemical preservatives, or anything that has been synthesized, everything is fine. But there are manufacturers who label their 90% natural food as "natural" food. The statement wants to limit the use the word "natural" to the former 100% case so that the consumer would not be misguided by the labels.

Thanks a lot, sdcar2010!
解释得比较清晰，算是对这句话不极端的一种理解，understood and agree.

刚做了这道题，句意理解没问题，关键在于 “restrict”这个词，本质就是要约束广告商滥用“natural food”的定义，一块石头，完全满足后面的条件，但它不是“natural”food.
