The following statement is being
issued by Blood Hurst & O'Reardon, LLP regarding the Kellogg's Mini-Wheats
Class Action Settlement.
A $4 million settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit over
Kellogg's Frosted Mini-Wheats branded cereals.
Consumers alleged in the lawsuit that Kellogg's Mini-Wheats cereal was falsely
advertised to improve kids' attentiveness, memory and other cognitive
functions to a degree not supported by competent clinical evidence. Kellogg
stands by its advertising and denies it did anything wrong. The settlement was
the result of a compromise.
If approved by the court, the settlement will result in cash refunds for up to
three boxes of cereal purchased during the time of the alleged false
advertising.
To be eligible for a refund, purchasers must submit a valid claim. Claims can
be submitted online at www.CerealSettlement.com. For further information,
visit www.bholaw.com, or call 888-561-9184. The actual amount claimants will
receive will depend on the number of valid claims submitted.
"This settlement represents an excellent recovery for consumers," said Timothy
Blood of Blood Hurst & O'Reardon, LLP, one of the lawyers representing
consumers. "If you bought Mini-Wheats between January 28, 2008 and October 1,
2009, you should submit a claim," he added.
Blood Hurst & O'Reardon represents consumers, insurance policy holders and
investors in class action litigation in state and federal courts throughout
the country.
