In March 2014, the parties agreed to dismiss a lawsuit against Nestlé USA, Inc. The complaint – which was filed in February 2014 – alleged that the company misbrands several varieties of instant coffees – including Nescafe Decaf Taster’s Choice Decaf House Blend and Nescafe Decaf Clasico Decaf Dark Roast — as decaffeinated when they actually contain almost as much caffeine as soda.

Nestlé USA, Inc., et al, Case No. 14-cv-00989, C. D. CA.).
