Definitely no immunity from lawsuits.
Uh-oh. After caving to pressure from S. F. City Attorney Dennis Herrera over claims that Cocoa Krispies is packed with disease-fighting pixie dust, maker Kellogg's faces further trouble. Our sister blog The Snitch reports today that a class-action lawsuit filed in Los Angeles is demanding the cereal maker reimburse customers who bought the sugary cereal in the expectation that it's boost their kids' immune systems.

"On behalf of the lead plaintiff Lakshmi Kammula," writes The Snitch, "the suit alleges all Kellogg's claims of the benefits derived from its so-called immunity-boosting and healthful chocolate cereal are bunk." Oh come on. Can't a sugar high make you feel so good you create the condition of disease resistance?
