Beneful ingredient and false-advertising litigation
A proposed class action alleged that ingredients in Beneful products could poison or kill pets and cited owner reports of illnesses. Nestlé Purina said the ingredients were food-grade and FDA-approved, while FDA testing cited in the reference material found no contaminants. The case later focused on false-advertising allegations, and the claims against Nestlé Purina were dismissed.
