The company faced two additional class action lawsuits filed earlier this year over the same issue.ĭid you purchase Folgers coffee products? Did you get fewer cups of coffee than you were promised on the product packaging? Let us know in the comment section below. Smucker has faced legal action over their Folgers serving advertisements. Moser says that several Folgers products are included in this proposed class action, such as: Classic Roast, Classic Roast Decaf, ½ Caff, CoffeeHouse Blend, Country Roast, Simply Smooth, Simply Smooth Decaf, 100% Colombian, Black Silk, Black Silk Decaf, Brazilian Blend, Breakfast Blend, French Roast, Gourmet Supreme, House Blend, and Special Roast products. The plaintiff seeks to represent a Class of Illinois consumers who purchased Folgers coffee products. In some cases, Moser contends, consumers would have not purchased the products at all if they had known the truth.ĭue to the impact Folgers’ cups of coffee representations had on consumer purchasing decisions, Moser argues that she and other consumers were financially injured by misrepresentations. Moser maintains that she and other consumers would not have paid as much for the Folgers products if they were aware of how many cups of coffee could actually be made per canister. “Indeed, it is a classic and unlawful bait-and-switch scheme that causes unsuspecting consumers to spend more money for less than the advertised amount of coffee they believe they are purchasing.” “Defendants have grossly exaggerated the number of cups of coffee that the Folgers ground coffee products can make in order to induce consumer purchases and to charge consumers more for these products,” the Folgers cups of coffee class action lawsuit reveals. Other Folgers coffee products allegedly show a similar issue, weighing enough to make around 60% to 70% of the advertised servings. Moser claims that this is only enough to make 173 cups of coffee – only 72% of the advertised 240 cups. However, the 30.5 oz container of Folgers coffee allegedly weighs only 865 grams. In order to make 240 cups of coffee, Moser argues that 1,200 grams of ground coffee would be needed. Moser notes that each tablespoon of ground coffee weighs about 5 grams. On the back of each product, consumers are reportedly instructed to use 1 tablespoon of ground coffee to make one 6 oz. The Folgers class action lawsuit points to the coffee products’ serving instructions to support Moser’s claims.
