Now, this seems berry ridiculous.
A new lawsuit is claiming that the strawberry filling in Pop-Tarts — the sugary breakfast pastry from Kellogg’s — apparently has very few actual berries.
The food corporation is being sued in a new class-action suit, according to TMZ, over claims that they’re misleading buyers about what’s in the pastry.
Elizabeth Russett, a woman from New York, is leading the charge against the company, TMZ reported, and alleged that the fruit filling in the Whole Grain Frosted Strawberry Toaster Pastries is mostly comprised of other fruits.
The suit claims that the sweet filling of the breakfast item is filled with pears and apples more so than strawberries. Russett alleged in the suit that it’s not enough to provide the berry’s nutritional benefit and to elicit a strawberry taste.
Russett is urging Pop-Tarts to adopt more accurate labeling and claims the damages exceed $5 million, per TMZ.

I’ve got it. This article should be in the Friday’s Silliness Thread, right? Stunningly stupid, this woman.
Whaaatttt!!! Next I suppose you’re going to tell me that Crunch Berries aren’t really berries.
They don’t have any ‘pop’ or ‘tarts’ in them either...............
It’s called “Strawberry Pop-Tarts” not “Strawberries Pop-Tarts”. What’s she complaining about.
Also, Lowes was sued because they were selling 1x4’s, 1x6s, that were actually 3/4” x 3 1/2”, 3/4” x 5 1//2” (the nominal size of lumber).
The plaintiff actually won in court because of false advertising.
So, now when you go into Lowes, Home Depot or almost any major retailer of lumber you will see a sign that says:
1x4
(actual size 3/4 x 3/12”)
LOL!

I should sue her for not being made up of enough potatoes

#7 Too many lawyers and not enough real cases so....
Hi I’m Lionel Hutz, frivolous attorney at law.
I just realized my Grape Nuts cereal contains neither grapes nor nuts.
lol
she may wish to purchase some over-hot hot coffee at McD’s on her way home from her stupid lawyer’s office
So put jelly on them. Kellogg’s may even spring for a case of jam if she asks them nicely enough.
Does anyone really eat Poptarts for the fruit?
How in the world does one choose among the thousands of law firms dying for the chance to lead a class action lawsuit where the law firm gets millions, and each individual in the class action ends up with pennies each?
The lady’s a fruitcake.
That Toucan Sam is a lying SOB!
