Simply OrangeAccording to the class action lawsuit, Simply Orange undergoes extensive processing and relies on added aroma and flavoring not found in nature, despite a label that prominently reads: “100% Pure Squeezed Orange Juice.”

“Coca-Cola misrepresented that Simply Orange was 100% pure and natural orange juice when in fact it was not,” the Simply Orange class action lawsuit says. The lawsuit claims Simply Orange undergoes extensive industrial processing that tweaks the orange juice into an artificial consistency, look, and smell.

The Simply Orange class action lawsuit further says that chemically engineered “flavor packets” are added to Simply Orange in order to mimic the flavor of natural orange juice.

The Simply Orange juice class action lawsuit is accusing Coca Cola of fraud and misrepresentation for inducing consumers into paying a premium price for the product due to their belief that it is fresh and unadulterated orange juice. It is seeking class-action status on behalf of consumers misled by the product’s “100% Pure Squeezed Orange Juice” label.

A spokeswoman for Coca-Cola said the lawsuit is “without merit.”

The case is Randall Davis v. The Coca-Cola Co., Case No. 12-cv-02391, U.S. District Court, District of Illinois.

    Subject: Health Concerns and Inquiry Regarding Simply Orange Products

    I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the recent health problems I have been experiencing after consuming Simply Orange products, a brand that I have been a loyal customer of for several years.

    I have been an avid consumer of your orange juice, I have enjoyed its refreshing flavor and perceived health benefits. However, over the past few months, I have noticed a significant deterioration in my respiratory health, particularly in the form of worsening asthma symptoms.

    As a dedicated consumer, I have taken a systematic approach to identify potential triggers for my asthma attacks. I have eliminated various factors from my lifestyle and diet, and it was during this process that I began to suspect a correlation between my asthma symptoms and the consumption of Simply Orange products. While I understand that personal experiences may not be definitive proof, the consistency with which my symptoms have arisen after consuming your orange juice cannot be overlooked.

    Given the aforementioned circumstances, I kindly request your assistance in addressing my concerns. I would greatly appreciate any information you can provide regarding the ingredients, production processes, and quality control measures involved in the manufacturing of Simply Orange. Specifically, I would like to know if any additives, preservatives, or potential allergens are used in the production of your orange juice.

    Furthermore, I would be grateful if you could share any recent changes or updates to the Simply Orange recipe or packaging that may help me better understand the possible cause of my health issues. Additionally, if there have been any reports or complaints from other customers regarding similar health concerns, I kindly ask that you share that information with me as well.

    As a loyal customer, I have placed my trust in Simply Orange and have recommended your products to friends and family. I believe it is important for companies to prioritize customer safety and satisfaction. Therefore, I kindly request your prompt attention to this matter, as it will greatly assist me in determining the cause of my health problems and seeking appropriate medical advice.

    I have enclosed copies of my medical records highlighting my recent asthma-related health issues. I hope this will help you understand the urgency and seriousness of my inquiry.

    Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation. I look forward to your prompt response and a resolution to this matter. Please feel free to contact me at the provided contact information should you require any further details.
