Coca-Cola’s Soft Drink Labels

2015: An Amended Consolidated Complaint making similar allegations (i.e., the company deceptively markets drinks as natural when they contain artificial flavoring and chemical preservatives) was filed.

2014: Multiple lawsuits have been filed against Coca-Cola claiming, among other things, that the company mislabeled Coca-Cola soft drinks because the labels list phosphoric acid as an ingredient without properly identifying it as an artificial flavor and chemical preservative, as required by both state and federal law. The lawsuits were transferred to another court where several related lawsuits making the same allegations will be heard together. To learn more about each case, click on the case information below.

(In Re: Coca-Cola Products Marketing and Sales Practices Litigation (No. II), MDL 2555, Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation).
