This is asinine –
A new class-action lawsuit involves four different states and a very literal reading of the label on a bottle of hot sauce. The first state is California, where resident Philip White went to the supermarket and bought a bottle of Texas Pete (second state) hot sauce, reports USA Today. Upon getting home and reading the label, however, White discovered that the product—which falls under the general category of a Louisiana-style (third state) hot sauce—is not made in Texas but rather in the fourth state, North Carolina.
“White relied upon the language and images displayed on the front label of the product, and at the time of purchase understood the product to be a Texas product,” says the complaint, per WGHP. He says he never would have bought the hot sauce had he known it wasn’t from Texas, renowned for its spiciness, and he’s asking the court to force parent company TW Garner Food to pay damages and change the brand’s name.
The company “has cheated its way to a market-leading position in the $3 billion hot-sauce industry at the expense of law-abiding competitors and consumers nationwide who desire authentic Texas hot sauce and reasonably, but incorrectly, believe that is what they are getting when they purchase Texas Pete,” says the complaint.
I am suing the Minnesota Fats estate for damages. I felt all these years I was watching authentic Minnesota billiard playing. Turns out the guy is from New York!!
I’ve been duped.
He should have known better:

He’s right… I’m suing Mars Bar. I spent years of my life thinking I was enjoying an intergalactic candy bar.
I bought a bag of Swedish Fish and they’re not fish at all! Get my lawyer on the phone!
Get a rope!
Any “French? Fry” lovers out there?
I voted for a Republican, turns out it was a RINO. I’m suing the RNC. Oh, wait.
Had a western omelet the other day with hashbrowns.
I live on the eastern side of Michigan so the omelet was a lie. And the hashbrowns didn’t give me tingle let alone a buzz.
Gerber is sweating, that people will think their jars actually contain babies.
fuckin retard!
I just ate an Indian Taco. Who the F do I sue?
Hey, Zonk! Mars bars are merely interplanetary. You have to look to Milky Way bars for interstellar treats!
Can’t wait for plaintiff to file on Buffalo Wings containing no buffalo….
… and on and on…
…which brings us to Wednesday Addams filing about Girl Scout Cookies…

He’s not expecting to win.
He’s hoping for a “nuisance settlement”.
Kiss my hairy, Irish Ass Philip White…if that is your real name!
I got 2 words for you, snitpuss: Made in America!
Only a whinny democrat voting pussy would care what state it’s made in.
I put that shit on everything & have for years.
King Hawaiian rolls aren’t from Hawaii.
I had an Italian ice, pretty sure it wasn’t shipped in from Italy..and my KFC, purchased in Holland, MI.
…sooo, where does that leave the AKC and its German Shepherds, Yorkies, and Scotties?
…and, MissInMi, I’ve been to Holland MI and it is NOT European at ALL!
…And don’t get me started about London, KY and Paris, KY, all the MLK Boulevards that have no Martin Luther King Jr on them, and then there’s Los Angeles with a NOTICEABLE lack of angels in it, Spanish or otherwise…
See that little “R” with the circle around it next to the “Texas Pete” name?
That means it is a registered trademark. A trademark doesn’t have to have any truth supporting its words. This a-hole has no standing.
Wait ’til they get to the PRONOUNS.
The “Impossible Meat” producers are in panic mode.
Wait ’til he hears about KFC, Popeye’s, Cape Cod chips, American Spirit cigs, Aunt Jemima, Log Cabin, and best of all, the California Raisins.
Texas Pete is my favorite!
Remember the ads for Pace salsa?
The guys sitting around the fire looking at another jar of salsa complaining it’s made in New York City!
Maybe we can sue every state for selling souvenirs that are made in China.
I’ve had Beans on Toast, a well-known Masterpiece of the British Culinary Art many times and I wasn’t even in GB, I was here in America. Will I get served papers from the His Majesty’s Order of British Chefs and Kitchen Helpers?

Never underestimate some of the judges sitting on the bench in this day and age.

Dutch Village,and Windmill Island
try to be some version of Dutch. But other than that,we are starting to resemble some town in Mexico.
Tulip Time parade actually features floats that carry winners of the local Hispanic and Asian beauty contests.
Although, as progressive as the Netherlands are, why should I expect a Dutch celebration to be Dutch.
The Dutch dancers during Tulip Time, look more like a meeting of UN, than any traditional representation of Dutch settlers and culture.
*Side note: A visitor from the Netherlands, who observed the Dutch dancers said that it was not a Dutch dance they were performing.
You mean my Silverado isn’t made in Colorado?
I just guzzled a half gallon of Night Train and there was no train of any sort in the bottle.
Hey, asshole, don’t forget to sue Sleeman Breweries for selling Sapporo beer: what we get here in the U.S.A. is brewed in Canada.
Nobody mentioned French Toast yet.
And I went to Paris, Maine and there wasn’t an Eiffel Tower there. And don’t get me started about China, Maine or Poland, Maine.
@Stop the World, don’t forget Mexico, ME or Denmark, ME!
I believe there are people in this country that stay up late at night just to think of something/anything to whine, moan, or bitch about.

…I was only up there for a Factory Acceptance Test at Dematic years ago, and in the winter so all the windmill stuff was closed and all the tulips were dead. Big Red Lighthouse was nice tho, but there was a LOOOOT of wind off the lake.
There was a place still open to get ersatz wooden shoes, tho.
Those things SUCK.
…we had a Belgian engineer here once, tho, and HE wore wooden shoes from the Old County routinely, and HIS were custom carved and reportedly very comfortable, althogh you always knew where he was by the little bangs going up and down the concrete floors…
