A new lawsuit claims there’s something fishy about Subway’s best selling sandwich: it’s neither tuna, nor fish.
Two California women are taking the fast food giant to court, seeking $5 million in damages.
Karen Dhanowa and Nilima Amin say they were allegedly duped by the product that contains not a “scintilla” of ocean-welling protein.
“Independent testing has repeatedly affirmed, the products are made from anything but tuna,” their court papers allege.
They claim the sandwich is composed of “a mixture of various concoctions that do not constitute tuna, yet have been blended together by defendants to imitate the appearance of tuna.”
Subway, in a statement to the press, says they shouldn’t be on the hook for any damages as the claims “frivolous” and “being pursued without adequate investigation.”
The allegations “threaten to damage our franchisees, small business owners who work tirelessly to uphold the high standards that Subway sets for all of its products, including its tuna,” a rep says.
