TINA.org digs into school’s debt-free claims.
In December 2013, a federal judge dismissed a class-action lawsuit against Blue Diamond Growers alleging that the company mislabels Almondmilk products. According to the complaint, the company labels various Almondmilk products – including Almond Breeze Almondmilk Chocolate (refrigerated) and Almond Breeze Almondmilk Vanilla Unsweetened (refrigerated) – as “all natural” when they actually contain artificial ingredients and as containing “evaporated cane juice” when they really contain sugar. The judge dismissed the complaint finding that the plaintiffs did not adequately show that there was $5 million in controversy. (Melvin et al v. Blue Diamond Growers, Case No. 13-cv-01746, C. D. CA.).
