In April 2018, a class-action lawsuit was filed against Mars Wrigley Confectioner for allegedly misleadingly advertising Snickers Protein Bars by misrepresenting the quantity, quality, and nature of the protein in them. Plaintiffs also claim that the company does not comply with federal and state law regarding the testing methodology of the protein and the daily reference value for protein. (Alejandro et al v. Mars Wrigley Confectionery US LLC, Case No. 2018CH04439, Illinois Circuit Courts – Cook County)
