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.

Hi.
Wait till this Karen realizes her coffee is now 11.2 or 10 oz for the same price or MORE.
She will be in court again, unless she runs out of attorneys.

“Grape Nuts”. One of the great mysteries of the world. My mother (rest her soul) fed me Froot Loops when I was a kid thinking they contained froot. Uh...fruit.
Didn’t McDonalds go through a similar suit some years ago about their apple pie ?
Yeah, but you sure got your *sugar* and *carb* dose.
Dreck indeed. She should start a class-action suit against them for poisoning children.
But not many.
Pears and apples are much cheaper.
Which is why they make up the majority of most "100% juice" drinks.
What???
Nooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!
Apparently she was eating pop tarts for their nutritional value????
Yes! And drinking beer because it's one of the important food groups:
1. Pop Tarts
2. Beer
3. ...
Well, I guess there's just two food groups for today.
And the yummy flavor and delicate pastry..
Hope she never tries Chobani blueberry Greek yogurt…good luck finding the single bb…lol
Yoplait aint bad.
Those aren’t berries but apple bits.
I mix Yoplait with oatmeal.
I don’t even _want_ to know what is in McDonald’s “apple pie”.
It is probably a bunch of big words with lots of syllables that sounds like a chemistry experiment.
;-)
You really don’t know what Mrs. Liebeck recieved in the final confidential settlement, do you? You might prefer to do a little research and find out what happened.

I dont remember that one,, but I do remember the hot coffee lawsuit, but in that case, the person got burned very very badly.
“does one find an attorney to handle such a lawsuit?”
Attorneys will take that on a win contingency fee basis, expecting a big shakedown payoff from fh3e deep pocket. Mrs Fruitloops will get box of 12 items as her share.
Those dang pies, I always scorch the roof of
My mouth on them lol. They are like biting into hot lava turnover, or bruning hot melted wax. And I even wait ti,l the meal is done before eating them too- I never learn lol
