Judge denies Texas Pete's request to dismiss lawsuit that hot sauce is made in North Carolina, not Texas (and now, something completely different)
Fox Business News ^ | August 6 2023 | Sarah Rumpf-Whitten

On July 31, U.S. District Judge Maame Ewusi-Mensah Frimpong denied the motion to dismiss the lawsuit in a 20-page letter, saying that customers "could believe — erroneously — that the products originated in Texas."

"Though it is true that the imagery of the solo white star and lassoing caricature are not exclusive to the state of Texas, taking the imagery and text of the label as a whole, this argument does not discount the possibility that a reasonable consumer would believe that the products are based in or originate from Texas."

The class action lawsuit, filed on September 12, 2022, by Phillip White, claimed that he purchased a bottle of Texas Pete hot sauce for about $3 at a Los Angeles supermarket, believing it was produced in Texas, according to the complaint.

TEXAS PETE HOT SAUCE SUED AFTER CONSUMER LEARNS PRODUCTS PRODUCT IS MADE IN NORTH CAROLINA

After learning the hot sauce was made in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, he claimed the company was using false advertising. He further claimed that he would not have bought the bottle or paid as much for it if he had known where it was produced.

"By way of its false marketing and labeling, [Texas Pete] knowingly and intentionally capitalizes on consumers’ desire to partake in the culture and authentic cuisine of one of the most prideful states in America," the complaint alleges.

I know. In Jamaica the Irish man had his way with the “help.” She’s less black than Obama-Sotero, but got a few in there.

yes but the courts refuse cases and will continue to do so. If we brought a case against a republican would be interesting what the courts would do.

Nancy Hayes Green, who originally portrayed the Aunt Jemima character, did have both nieces and nephews.

Harlan Sanders was (among other things) a Kentucky Colonel.

Obama did not originate on this planet. Kamala? Ask Willie ...

Warren is from the Fugawi Tribe.

The Irish in Jamaica were there as labor more than overseer or slave owner. Cromwell sent some 2,000 Irish children to Jamaica as slaves in 1656. Adult Irish were later sent as indentured laborers. Cromwell had a system called the Western Design.
Roughly 25% of Jamaicans, including Bob Marley, can claim Irish ancestors.

Hamilton Brown, never married but produced at least six mulatto children. He came to Jamaica with his uncle from Tullyloob, County Down in Ireland and became first a clerk for a law firm, and then a land and slave owner; making him a rich man. His ancestry can be traced back to the great families of Europe and Persia and then to Canaan in about 3400 BC. While only 27 generations are presented here, due to page limitations, Kamala’s family line is also available on Ancestry.com in the “Harris” family file.

If so— then YOU are proven wrong. Natural Born Citizen was intended and created by the Founders to prevent INFUSION of British Colonial agents into the US government.

And IF you think it is appropriate for say, Boris Johnson to think it’s ok to say (and he did, not whimsically) he’d run for President— a British citizen. This was the point then, and the point now.

Take this up with the hag biotch Pelousi who “passed” obamaumao as being American born (not the point) to a Kenyan father and American mother.... in Hawaii. When he was NOT. The birth certificate that obamaumao supplied is proven fake. All other Americans have to provide true not forged birth certificates for critical legal transactions. Trump knew this... and actually before him, it was a democrat operative working for Hitlery Clinton who discovered the whole thing and exposed it.

The SOB is still in charge. And Pelosi thinks she is unanswerable. All it takes is persistent directed accusations of ALL that has been done. We see the response to this— utter fear of demonrats trapped in their crimes.

As long as Harris, Jindal and Vivek were allowed to apply for the VP and presidency based on the current criteria, then YOU are proven wrong.

Stop it with your nonsense bro, explain to me why NO ONE has ever challenged their legitimacy to the SCOTUS? NO ONE!

Here's your chance to be a hero bro, take your argument to the SCOTUS because it's a total failure here.

Good luck homie!

Judge Frimpong received her Bachelor of Arts degree, magna cum laude, from Harvard College in 1997, and her Juris Doctor degree from Yale Law School in 2001

Of course. It requires such an education to be swayed by such stupidity

Bro? You are proven wrong- this is not legalisms. SCOTUS has nothing to do with it— Pelosi does. And she is going down with obamaumao. Done here- well, bye!
