FOOD NEWS – STARBUCKS BEING SUED AGAIN
The TRUTH about Food and Travel
Original Broadcast Date:  1/20/2024

Elizabeth has the latest food news including a story that caught our attention:

A consumer advocacy group is suing Starbucks for false advertising, claiming the company sells coffee and tea that comes from farms with human rights and labor abuses… while at the same time, patting itself on the back for its commitment to ethical sourcing. CNBC says the National Consumers Union filed the complaint in federal court saying the company is misleading the public, and that Starbucks is purchasing coffee beans from farms and countries with documented proof of labor right violations and human abuses. Starbucks didn’t respond to NBC News about the allegations, and says it stands by the company’s “Global Human Rights Statement.”
