Four customers in Florida have filed a federal lawsuit against The Hershey Company alleging that designs displayed on some Reese's Peanut Butter cups were misleading to customers.
Once the chocolate candies are unwrapped from their packaging, the actual products and the products are"blanks," the lawsuit says."Hershey's deceptive advertising is causing many consumers to purchase the products because of the cool and beautiful carved out designs on the products' packaging, when they would have not purchased the products if they were truthfully advertised," the suit reads.
In the suit, the four customers allege that the products' packaging was not"always deceptive and misleading," as the company changed the packaging for the products to include detailed carvings within the last two to three years in order to"boost sales and revenues." Anthony Russo, the attorney representing the case, told NPR his firm receives dozens of calls a month for cases involving misleading advertising when it comes to products and advertising.
