$2M Wahlburgers pickles class action settlement

Consumers who purchased Wahlburgers pickles could receive a cash payment from a $2 million settlement with no proof of purchase required for up to six purchases. Read more below!

The settlement provides benefits to consumers who purchased Wahlburgers pickles, including Fresh Dill Spears, Fresh Dill Chips and Fresh Dill Chips Hot, between April 1, 2021, and March 31, 2023.

According to the class action lawsuit, the statements “fresh”, “all natural”, and “no preservatives” on the Wahlburgers Pickles were misleading because the Products contained sodium benzoate. 

Wahlburgers denies any and all wrongdoing of any kind and any liability to the Plaintiffs and the Settlement Class, but it has agreed to pay $2 million to resolve the class action lawsuit.

Under the terms of the Wahlburgers settlement, class members can receive $2 per purchased product without proof of purchase and can claim up to six products for a maximum payment of $12. Class members with proof of purchase can claim as many products as they have proof of and will receive full reimbursement for these products. 

To receive Wahlburgers settlement benefits, class members must submit a valid claim form by July 29, 2024.

The deadline for exclusions or objections is Sept. 4, 2024.

The final approval hearing for the settlement is scheduled for Sept. 25, 2024.
