Allegations: Falsely suggesting products are primarily sweetened with fruit juice by marketing them as “Made with Real Fruit Juice” when the only sweetening ingredient is added sugar
In October 2019, a class-action lawsuit was filed against Annie’s Homegrown for allegedly misleadingly marketing that its vanilla ice cream products contain vanilla when, according to plaintiffs, the ingredients list shows that the products contain “organic natural flavor” instead of vanilla. (Housell et al v. Annie’s Homegrown, Inc., Case No. 19-cv-9670, S. D. NY.)
