In California, two women are accusing Subway of selling fake tuna. They filed a lawsuit against the company in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. Their lawsuit claims that independent tests couldn’t find any actual tuna in samples. The attorney for the plaintiffs told the Washington Post the ingredients not only were not tuna but also “not fish.” Instead, they say the testing found, “a mixture of various concoctions that do not constitute tuna, yet have been blended together by defendants to imitate the appearance of tuna.”
Subway says the claim “baseless”
Subway says the accusation is entirely baseless. Their tuna is tuna, they say. The two women are identified as Karen Dhanowa and Nilima Amin. Many will wonder if they got their inspiration to test subway tuna from the ongoing chicken legal action between the CBC and Subway in Canada.
