I’m willing to bet this idiot votes, too.

Show of hands: Who here eats Pop Tarts for the high nutritional value, believing they’re chock full of vitamin-packed fruit?


Kellogg’s slapped with $5M lawsuit over Pop-Tarts’ strawberry filling
The lawsuit, filed in late August by Anita Harris in the U.S. District Court Southern District of Illinois East St. Louis Division against Kellogg Sales Company, argues that the Kellogg Sales Company is misleading consumers by promoting the breakfast pastry’s strawberry filling in its labels and marketing, giving an impression that the fruit filling contains “a greater relative and absolute amount of strawberries than it does.”

Harris pointed out that more Americans are eating strawberries because of “one of the highest levels of nutrient density of all fruits” and “‘an excellent source of vitamin C,’ necessary for immune and skin health.”


I can safely safe I never ate a Pop Tart or other similar toaster pastry for the vitamin C.

She’s gotta be a Dim-ocrat. And she doubled down on the stupid:


The company’s “Frosted Strawberry Toaster Pastries” contain 2% or less of “dried strawberries, dried pears, dried apples” and “red 40,” according to its nutrition label.

“The Product does not reveal the addition of this artificial coloring anywhere other than the ingredient list,” court documents further stated.


Yeah, because that’s what the “nutrition facts” box is for, so those who give a damn know where to look for that information. Which the filing seems to indicate she read.

Oh. Wait. She may have an excuse for being stupid (and Dim-ocrat): East St. Louis. Sadly, this means if she gets a jury trial, they’ll be her peers and she’ll probably win. Maybe she’s not quite so stupid.
