A couple weeks ago somebody mentioned that their store-bought
avocado/guacamole dip had little or no avocado in it.
Here's your chance to fatten the wallets of the class-action
lawyers, while getting a free pint of (50% or more) guacamole.

Los Angeles consumer attorney Ray E. Gallo is investigating
alleged fraud in the sale of so-called ¡§guacamole¡¨ that contains
relatively little, if any, avocado. The makers of these products
include Dean¡¦s, Marie¡¦s, Herr¡¦s, T. Marzetti¡¦s, and even Kraft.
Avocados are the main ingredient in guacamole. Secondary
ingredients usually include tomatoes, onions, citrus juice and
spices. But the so-called guacamole dips in question contain
little or no avocado. Avocado is the 6th or 7th ingredient in most
of these dips¡Xmeaning there¡¦s not much in there. Herr¡¦s doesn¡¦t
list avocado as one of its ingredients, just ¡§avocado powder.¡¨ All
these dips contain significantly more soybean oil, coconut oil,
and/or other vegetable oils than they do avocado. Often these oils
are partially hydrogenated. But these manufacturers still sell
their dips as "guacamole." Herr¡¦s and T. Marzetti¡¦s even have a
picture of an avocado on their labels, with the apparent intent to
mislead consumers to believe their dip is really guacamole.
This is a paid advertisement by the law firm of Gallo &
Associates. Ray E. Gallo is a graduate of Yale College and the
UCLA School of Law, and has repeatedly been listed in Martindale
Hubbell¡¦s Bar Register of Preeminent lawyers.
