Acquard et al v. Big Heart Pet Brands, Inc.

Two consumers have filed suit against Big Heart Pet Brands, Inc. over claims that the pet food company misrepresented its Nature’s Recipe dog and cat foods as “All Natural.”
Two consumers have filed suit against Big Heart Pet Brands, Inc. over claims that the pet food company misrepresented its Nature’s Recipe dog and cat foods as “All Natural.”
The lawsuit argues that despite the company’s representations, the products contain a number of non-natural ingredients, including suspected neurotoxin sodium tripolyphosphate, synthetic vitamins and minerals, citric acid, and lactic acid. As the plaintiffs tell it, they relied on the defendant’s misrepresentations when deciding to purchase its “All Natural” line of pet foods and would not have paid a premium price for the products had they known the food contained synthetic ingredients.
The lawsuit was filed in the wake of a wave of litigation alleging Big Heart Pet Brands’ products contain toxins that are harmful to pets.
