As the result of Dial Corporation’s continued claims that its line of Dial Complete products are safe and better than regular soap and water, we offer the following timeline representing the introduction and subsequent findings regarding Dial Complete’s active ingredient Triclosan and its use by the general population.

Mission Foods will face charges that it misleads consumers by marketing its Guacamole-flavored and bean dips as having zero grams of Trans-fat and because it contains a very small amount of avocado.

According to a report at Courthouse News Service, Mission Foods will have to answer these claims in a Los Angeles courtroom after a judge there allowed a lawsuit against the company to go forward.

Two women, Mary Henderson and Eileen Joy Peviani, claim that Mission Foods (a subsidiary of Nevada-based Gruma Corp.) is lying when it says its Mission Guacamole and Mission Spicy Bean Dip have 0 grams of Trans-Fat and 0 grams of cholesterol.
