Long story short, Kraft sold "Guacamole" but Guacamole only made up 2% of the actual product. The rest was artificial flavoring and likely very unhealthy fatty acid ingredients. You can read the whole story here.

I can't decide what I think of this. There's always the people trying to make an extra buck from lawsuits like the spilled hot coffee. But, it's also pretty ridiculous to sell a jar of unhealthy gunk as straight up Guacamole!

What do you think?

I checked out your blog and it is very interesting! And, a great niche resource... keep up the good work! Once this community HERE grows a bit I'm sure it will be a great source of traffic to your blog.

Keep up the great blogging!

Sure it may sound like a frivolous claim, but you'll be thanking the woman the next time you open a can of refriend beans, and it actually is a can of refriend beans.....

Seems to be very common in the US to sue people for any reason under the sun. Not so common here in Australia but I think we are catching up. We are starting to see stories on the news about people sueing for ridiculous reasons.
