Barbara's Bakery class action lawsuit settlement

Details on how to file a claim for the Barbara’s Bakery class action lawsuit settlement have arrived. If you purchased a Barbara’s Bakery product between 2008 and 2013, you may be eligible to claim up to $100 from the class action settlement.

The Barbara’s Bakery settlement resolves a class action lawsuit (Trammell v. Barbara’s Bakery) that all alleges the company mislabeled its cereal and snack products as “all natural” when they actually contain genetically modified (GMO) ingredients.

Barbara’s Bakery denies the allegations, but has agreed to resolve the litigation by offering up to $100 in reimbursements to consumers and removing the terms “all natural,” “no artificial additives,” “no artificial preservatives” and “no artificial flavors” from its packaging on foods that contain GMOs or artificial ingredients.

A federal judge preliminarily approved the class action settlement on June 21, 2013. A Final Fairness Hearing will be held November 8, 2013.

Class Members of the Barbara’s Bakery settlement include all U.S. consumers who purchased eligible products from May 23, 2008 through July 5, 2013. These products include cereals, cereal bars, fig bars, cheese puffs, granola bars, Snackimals animal cookies, organic mini cookies, snack mixes and crackers. See the full list of eligible products.

Class Members that submit a valid Claim Form no later than January 1, 2014 will get up to $100 to reimburse the money they paid to purchase these products. The amount of money you may receive will depend on the total amount of money you spent on the eligible products during the Class Period.

    bob REALLY? you think that money will end up in our pockets LOL !!!! Rust will charge 4 times that amount to handle phone calls and tech services blah blah blah. Rust gets more and more of the pie. Nice thought that we would get extra but that NEVER happens with rust consulting. They probally playing game in back room seeing which checks to keep. (Lame denials etc…) I wish everyone a big fat check.

  2. bob says:

    if they get 2 % on the 4 million they have and decided to wait 2 more months to distribute it that would be over $13,000 extra. wheres the karma for that

    Why is everyone fighting over a few extra dollars? Is the name calling really necessary?

  10. LMAO says:

    Not calling any names, but for the “Psychic” (psycho)
    that knew the checks would be delayed and “personally knows someone who works there”, please look into your little crystal ball and tell us non delusional people the date and the amount of our check. We would really appreciate your ability to do so

    1. physco says:

      LMAO…I don’t have a crystal ball….I simply asked him a question and he said he didn’t work that account, two days later he texted me and said, he didn’t see a June or July distribution…what he saw was a late August distribution and yes I could tell you the exact amount…. I can also tell you Cipro will pay out in the same month, and the amount was tripled because there was more money left. I have simply decided to just stay off of the site, I have never seen such a childish set of people in my life…. I don’t have the time for it.
