That's where the language used is important.
About twenty five years ago there was a fuss about a new company selling "hedgehog flavoured crisps". The public was a bit upset by the use of hedgehogs. The Advertising Standards Authority was upset by the non-use of hedgehogs. They had to be renamed "hedgehog flavour crisps"
You see - you can describe one thing as having the favour of something else without a problem. But describing one thing as flavoured with another requires that it does contain some of the second item.
