October 2014: A federal judge allowed some of the false advertising allegations in a class-action lawsuit against Hain Celestial Group to move forward. The remaining claims allege that the company misleadingly labels Earth’s Best Organic Mini Waffles as “all natural” when, according to plaintiffs, they contain synthetic ingredients. The original complaint also included allegations regarding misrepresentations made on the company’s website and Facebook page, but because the named plaintiff did not allege that she had actually viewed those pages, the Court determined that she lacked standing (i.e., a proper basis to sue) and dismissed that part of the complaint (as well as some of the other claims that do not relate to false advertising).
