taco bell meat
An Alabama law firm have claims filed in a lawsuit against Taco Bell that they have been using false advertising when they label their products having "seasoned ground beef" in them. However the meat mix sold by Taco Bell restaurant includes binders and extenders and isn't up to the requirement set by US agriculture for them to label their meat "beef".
The class-action lawsuit was filed Friday in federal court in the Central District of California by the Montgomery law firm Beasley, Allen, Crow, Methvin, Portis & Miles. Attorney Dee Miles said attorneys had Taco Bell's "meat mixture" tested and found it contained less that 35 percent beef. The lawsuit on behalf of Taco Bell customer and California resident Amanda Obney does not seek monetary damages, but asks the court to order Taco Bell to be honest in its advertising.
So clearly a false advertising issue Taco Bell will have to rectify if they are to lift the lawsuit placed against them.
