she didn't win


but isn't there some way we can STOP these kinds of suits even BEFORE they're filed? for goddess' sake. CRUNCHBERRIES? (and here's the part where i tell you i'm a purist. capt'n crunch is my favorite cereal. there, i've said it. it's my all time favorite. BUT WITHOUT CRUNCHBERRIES. oh, i haven't had any in years. just saying, i do love it but i try not to eat it) this gets filed under the i WISH i made it up, but i didn't, it's real, category:

The plaintiff, Janine Sugawara, alleged that she had only recently learned to her dismay that said "berries" were in fact simply brightly-colored cereal balls, and that although the product did contain some strawberry fruit concentrate, it was not otherwise redeemed by fruit.......
