Chai Tea Lattes from Oregon Chai
In November 2020, a class-action lawsuit was filed against Kerry Inc. for allegedly misleadingly marketing Oregon Chai brand Chai Tea Latte as “slightly sweet” to make consumers believe the beverage is low in sugar when, according to the complaint, the beverage is not low in sugar, which is the second most predominant ingredient in the product. (Brown et al v. Kerry Inc., Case No. 20-cv-9730, S.D.N.Y.)
