I completely forgot I had applied to be part of this class action lawsuit, so it was a pleasant surprise this morning when I saw there had been a settlement in the case!
In the No Artificial Flavors Litigation (Hilsley v. Ocean Spray Cranberries) a settlement has been reached, and if you chose Amazon or PayPal payout, that money should already be in your inbox! If not, you should receive a check in the next 2 weeks.
I received $17.40 for my fund!

This Settlement resolves a lawsuit against Ocean Spray Cranberries, Inc. (“Ocean Spray”) alleging that Ocean Spray’s Product labels claiming to contain “No Artificial Flavors” are false and misleading because the Products actually contain the artificial flavoring ingredients dl-malic acid and/or fumaric acid.
Ocean Spray denies the allegations and any wrongdoing. Nonetheless, it has agreed to settle to avoid the cost and uncertainty of litigation.
