A federal judge allowed a lawsuit to proceed against Subway, which alleges its tuna sandwiches 'partially or wholly' lack tuna. The chain had requested the suit be dismissed.
A worker at a Subway sandwich shop makes a tuna sandwich last year in San Anselmo, California. A lawsuit in federal court accuses the restaurant giant of not using 100% tuna in its offerings — and a judge has denied Subway's request to dismiss the suit.
Amin's lawsuit cites a marine biologist who analyzed 20 samples of tuna offerings from 20 different Subway restaurants and found"no detectable tuna DNA sequences whatsoever" in 19 samples. But, Amin says, the samples did contain other types of animal DNA, such as from chicken and pork. But Tigar recently ruled that Amin's lawsuit should continue, saying the facts at the heart of the case aren't settled. He also noted that some of the allegations"refer to ingredients that a reasonable consumer would not reasonably expect to find in a tuna product."
Of Judge Tigar's ruling, they added,"We are disappointed the Court felt it couldn't dismiss the plaintiffs' reckless and improper lawsuit at this stage."
