A federal judge on Monday said ConAgra Brands must face a lawsuit claiming it misled U.S. consumers into believing that nine Mrs. Paul’s and Van de Kamp’s fish products were sustainably sourced.
U.S. District Judge Virginia Kendall in Chicago rejected ConAgra’s argument that the phrase “Good for the Environment” on packaging was “puffery,” meaning an overstatement or exaggeration that could not support the proposed class action.
