A Catch-22 for Pepper Tins
The famous spice company McCormick is under fire after allegations surfaced that they cut the amount of pepper in their tins by a whopping 25%. Just to give you an idea, their tins used to carry around 8 ounces of pepper, but now they only held about 6 ounces. Concerned that McCormick may have used a misleading marketing strategy to inflate their pepper sales per tin, Watkins Inc. has sounded the alarm.
The disparity in the advertising approaches used by the two firms has been highlighted by this case. When it comes to pepper, McCormick uses opaque containers that hide the amount, whereas Watkins uses smaller containers that hold the same amount. Deceptive and in violation of consumer protection regulations, according to Watkins, are McCormick’s tactics.
What Happens to Buyers
This action has ramifications for customers as well. In comparing these two brands, many consumers mistakenly believe that McCormick provides more pepper at a lower price. But that’s not how things work in practice. The quantity of pepper in the tins from both brands is same. McCormick argues that it is not liable for any misleading advertising claims as the amount is plainly stated on their cans.
Along with Watkins’ case, a class-action lawsuit has been started by unhappy consumers who bought McCormick’s new pepper canisters and claim that they were deceived. The federal court system is now processing these matters.
