In a proposed class action filed in federal court, a customer accused Taco Bell of deceiving consumers by falsely advertising some menu items as containing 'at least double' their actual content, when the actual order contains only half as much advertised.
NEW YORK - Frank Siragusa was not happy that the Mexican Pizza he paid $5.49 for at a Taco Bell in New York City last September appeared to contain only half as much beef and bean filling as the photo in the chain's advertising. So he sued.
Siragusa, of Ridgewood, New York, included photos showing food bursting with beef, cheese and bright red and green vegetables, juxtaposed with "actual" photos of smaller, less vibrant food that other customers posted online. The lawsuit seeks at least $5 million for Taco Bell customers who bought the five items in New York state in the last three years. He is not alleging that the items contain less content than Taco Bell describes on its website.Last year, one of Siragusa's lawyers filed a still-pending lawsuit in Brooklyn accusing McDonald's and Wendy's over the actual versus advertised size of their burgers.
