I wonder
I wonder if the woman who filed the lawsuit was as ignorant as many people think or if she was just outraged that Nutella tried to pass themselves off as a nutritious part of a healthy breakfast. I think anyone who looks at the label would know otherwise since "sugar" is the first ingredient. It's pretty blantant that it's false advertising. However, there are plenty of other food companies guilty of this same "crime", some that aren't as obviously unhealthy. It's too bad that she couldn't have chosen one of those to sue instead of Nutella. I absolutely LOVE Nutella and while it would be great to eat it morning, noon and night, I'm not stupid, so I won't do that. This lawsuit isn't going to stop me from buying it and I doubt anyone else who loves it will stop either. I think this lawsuit was a way to tell food companies to stop selling us junk food by calling it healthy. I just hope other companies are paying attention.
