Taco Bell Sued Over Amount of Meat and Beans in Food

Taco Bell Sued , Over Amount of Meat and Beans in Food.

Frank Siragusa of New York filed a lawsuit against Taco Bell on July 31 in Brooklyn, 'USA Today' reports.

.

Siragusa is seeking class-action status to sue Taco Bell for falsely advertising the way its menu items are prepared.

The complaint includes photos that compare Taco Bell's ads with what the food really looks like when it is ordered.

The lawsuit states that Siragusa "expected the Mexican Pizza that he purchased to contain a similar amount of beef and bean filling as contained in the pictures of the Mexican pizza in Taco Bell’s advertisements,".

But in reality, it only had "half of the beef and bean filling that he expected.".

Taco Bell’s actions are especially concerning now that inflation, food, and meat prices are very high and many consumers, especially lower-income consumers, are struggling financially, Via lawsuit.

Taco Bell advertises larger portions of food to steer consumers to their restaurants for their meals and away from competitors that more fairly advertise the size of their menu items, unfairly diverting millions of dollars in sales that would have gone to competitors, Via lawsuit.

Siragusa wants Taco Bell to stop misleading customers and pay monetary damages to those who have purchased Mexican pizzas and crunch wraps.
