Nutella Consumer Class Action Settlement
IF YOU PURCHASED NUTELLA IN CALIFORNIA BETWEEN AUGUST 1, 2009 AND JANUARY 23, 2012, OR IN ANY OTHER STATE BETWEEN JANUARY 1, 2008 AND FEBRUARY 3, 2012, YOU MAY BE ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE A PAYMENT FROM A PROPOSED CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT.
Please remember this is pertaining to a lawsuit. Do not fill out the form if you did not purchase Nutella. You are signing the document or providing your electronic signature under oath. Please do not commit perjury.
What are they being sued for?
Both lawsuits allege that Defendant Ferrero made representations through its marketing and advertising of Nutella brand hazelnut spread, improperly suggesting that Nutella is healthier than it actually is.
Ferrero denies the allegations and stands by its products and advertising. ~Princess Karen
Gotcha.
Thank You
I purchased Nutella last fall, infact I still have some of it.
Your welcome! More information is on the link in the blog post. ~Princess Karen
I usually purchase it a couple times a year
I’ve bought it, read the nutrition label, and never concluded it was good for me….just tasty. Guess I don’t deserve any of their money 🙂
We bought some and I didn’t like it
Ridiculous
In comparison to Peanut butter yes it is healthier in some aspects, overall no it’s not and their advertising can lead some to believe that it’s a healthy breakfast food but really it’s just too dang good to care how healthy it is or isn’t Haha
What people do for money. Really people!
Wow…that’s a little crazy. I know its not any better for me than anything else that’s chocolate…but I <3 it!
I have pirchased this alot is there something wrong with it
Please read the link in the post for more information.
Seriously? That’s ridiculous. It’s not like anyone got sick from it.
Oh well, my kids and I still love it! We eat it with crackers or bread! Yummmmm! 🙂
We are such a litigious society. If it didn’t make someone ill, people should just get over it. SMH
LOL Angie 🙂 -Consumer Queen
lol is this for real people are crying because a nut butter product isnt healthy? do people read labels? its clearly marked. and they never claimed it itself to be healthy they said in the commercials that its good and it helps kids eat healthy multigrain bread/toast. absolutlely pathetic and really really makes shame on this country. all these people reaching for lawsuits so they dont have to go to work and can sit on their butts all day doing nothing. go get a job people no one is entitled to anything but the air they breathe!
This is a bunch of. No wonder things cost so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I really like this sight alot. Do you really want to encourage a frivolous lawsuit over weather something is not as ‘healthy’ as the label claims.
Shari,
We are not encouraging a “frivolous” lawsuit. The lawsuit has already happened. This is the Class Action Settlement Phase. We are not encouraging anyone to do anything that they are not comfortable with. This post was meant to inform people of what had happened and give them the opportunity to join the settlement class if they wanted to. Nutella had already been found to have misleading marketing tactics and they are correcting them. If you do not want to participate in the Class Action that is your right; however, there are other people that may wish to participate.
