A New York federal judge determined that StarKist must face a tuna class action lawsuit taking issue with the company’s “heart healthy” claims, but has agreed to throw out some of the allegations. According to U.S. District Judge Gary Sharpe, the plaintiff sufficiently built a case that StarKist had used false advertising on their tuna labels by failing to disclose that the “Heart-Check Mark” on the can was a paid endorsement by the American Heart Association. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this with Scott Hardy from Top Class Actions.
