Almond Breeze Almondmilk Vanilla Yogurt Alternative
Allegations: Misleadingly marketing yogurt as “vanilla with other natural flavors” when the ingredients list shows that the product contains more “Natural Flavors” than vanilla extract
Almond Breeze Almond Coconut Blend
In October 2020, a class-action lawsuit was filed against Blue Diamond Growers for allegedly misleadingly marketing that the sole flavoring ingredient in Almond Breeze Almond Coconut Blend is vanilla when, according to plaintiffs, the ingredients list shows that the beverage contains unspecified “Natural Flavors.” Plaintiffs also claim that the vanilla flavor comes from artificial ingredients and the amount of vanilla in the product is, at most, de minimis. (Bradshaw et al v. Blue Diamond Growers, Case No. 20-cv-5125, E.D.N.Y.)
