And how did that case end?

Hint: Not well You can try to sue anyone for anything. There's just no guarentee it'll work, and it didn't there.

There are cases that do work, such as about transfats but that is about specifically misleading someone, not supplying something unhealthy. Also that was settled, not fully through the courts.

so?

the case in OP is still going on so we don't know how it will end yet. I was just pointing out something that already happened cause the metaphor used matched that case. Like, it was funny to mention something like that when it already happened and we know how it played out.

We don't know how the case in OP is gonna play out. You can't predict the future.
