Oh man, I would love to be the lawyer for Kellog's at that trial. I'd open boxes of Froot Loops under the noses of the jurors. "You smell that? Does that smell like any fruit you know? Now taste it. Would anyone really believe that something that tastes like a chemical spill at Bayer would actually contain fruit?"

It all reminds me of the Crackpot Prospector v. California case of 1851 in which a man argued that fool's gold should be valid legal tender when given by and distributed among idiots.
EDIT: Or the Crazy Man v. Ralston case of 1991 in which a man tried to sue the cereal manufacturer by claiming that Urkel-O's did not contain enough Jaleel White.

I wonder if they spell it "Froot" solely as a defence against lawsuits like this?

I like the fact according to the article, he's also suing Pepsico, makers of Cap'n Crunch, for the same reason. Lack of fruit. Has anyone ever heard of a fruit called a Crunch Berry?
Please. I hope the judge laughs in his face. |

Why am I completely unsurprised that this guy is from San Francisco?

I had a wreck on the day I had Lucky Charms. Seriously. Wonder if I have a case?

Also, were the charms smashed in the wreck? Because THEY might have been lucky. You? Not necessarily.
