I do believe you’ve missed the entire point of the case. The use of these oils is not necessary and creates a threat to consumer health. This suit is asking that either a) KFC use non-hydrogenated oils or b) consumers are warned AT the place of purchase of its health risks. Much like the warning label on cigarettes.

I don’t see how suing a company for putting its consumers health at risk without cause is a “BS lawsuit”

You’re pissed because people may end up getting money for suing over an “obvious” issue. Aside from the lawsuit why are you not angry with KFC for knowingly using a product that damages the health of its users? Especially when that product can be easily replaced with a much healthier substitution.

Perhaps you don’t believe that companies should actively try to not kill their customers.
