I get freebies of cereal for my chickens. The latest batch was a Cheerios look-alike: oat flour, wheat starch, sugar, corn starch, & so on. On the front of the box it says "Smart for your Health" & "USDA recommends consuming 48g or more of whole grain daily."
So who should get sued - the USDA or Ralston Foods?
Seriously, tho, Costco must have had bad lawyers. Even if the government says a food is not healthy, it has been shown wrong in the past. But science doesn't seem to get very far with juries (I'm assuming there was a jury). Johnson & Johnson has lost a couple of cases even tho there is no proof that talcum powder causes cancer. |
