A new false advertising lawsuit against Almond Breeze maker Blue Diamond alleges it's far less than the packaging would have you believe. Blue Diamond doesn't list what percentage of Almond Breeze is made from almonds in the U.S., but a U.K. Almond Breeze website says it's only 2 percent, FoodNavigator-USA reports. The lawsuit, filed July 14 in New York, doesn't specify what percentage the average customer would deem acceptable for purchase, but it does say "upon an extensive review of the recipes for almond milk on the internet, the vast majority of the recipes call for one part almost and three or four parts water, amounting to 25-33% of almonds." Plaintiffs Tracy Albert and Dimitrios Malaxianis argue in the suit that the product's packaging, which includes pictures of almonds and the phrase "made from real almonds," deceives customers into thinking they're buying a product made mostly from almonds.
