Case Name
Birbrower, et al. v Quorn Foods, Inc.Case No. CV 16-01346-DMG-AJWx.United States District Court for the Central District of California
Case Summary
The lawsuit alleges that Quorn failed to adequately disclose that the “Mycoprotein” used in its products is a mold (member of the fungi family).. Plaintiff further alleges the following statement on the labels of Quorn’s products is false and misleading: “Quorn [products] are made with mycoprotein (“myco” is Greek for “fungi”) and are completely meatless and soy-free. There are believed to be over 600,000 varieties of fungi in the world, many of which are among the most sought after foods like varieties of mushroom, truffles, and morels.” Plaintiff contends this statement misleadingly suggests that Quorn Products are made from mushrooms, truffles or morels, as opposed to mold. Quorn denies Plaintiff’s allegations and disputes that the quoted language was intended to, or actually does, convey the information Plaintiff suggests.
Quorn denies any and all wrongdoing of any kind whatsoever, and denies any liability to Plaintiff and to the Settlement Class
