Moish, are you that gullible?! C'mon how much more do you think it costs (my guess is zero- you aren't charge by "ink content), possible he meant that the cost of redesigning is too high - also improbable as they anyway redesign their labels once in a while so they should do it then. Rather, I think the reason is because unlike in the US, many of the EU companies do not pay for supervision (instead the kehilla provides it as one of its services) as it is not worth it for them from a cost/gain point. Additionaly it may be that they fear a backlash if people see something jewish on their labels.
