A new lawsuit filed against LaCroix claims the flavored sparkling water beverages aren’t “all natural” as the company states. Rather, the beverages contain “synthetic” ingredients, according to the lawsuit.
Beaumont Costales filed the class action lawsuit against LaCroix’s parent company National Beverage Corporation on Monday. It claimed LaCroix intentionally misled consumers by calling its beverages “100% natural” when they actually contain linalool, which is used in cockroach insecticide, and other chemicals that “can cause kidney toxicity and tumors,” the suit said.
