The deadline to submit a claim in Poppi soda’s $8.9 million class-action lawsuit is quickly approaching.
Qualifying customers have until this Friday, September 26 to file a claim in the class-action lawsuit against Poppi’s former owner, VNGR Beverage, LLC, that alleges the low-sugar, prebiotic soda was “improperly marketed” and labeled as “gut healthy,” a claim that is not scientifically backed, leading customers to purchase products they would not have otherwise.
The company argued its labeling is truthful and accurate, and denied any liability or wrongdoing, according to the lawsuit website and court records obtained by USA Today.
