Nutella lover? You may be due $4 per jar in lawsuit settlement

Bookmark and Share

If Nutella has had a regular spot on your pantry shelf,  you may have a refund coming to you.

That's the result of the $3 million settlement of a class-action lawsuit challenging advertising claims that the chocolate hazelnut spread was a “wholesome” food that could be served as part of a "balanced" and "nutritious breakfast."

The lawsuit, brought by a California mom, claimed Nutella commercials and labeling gave consumers the idea Nutella is "healthier than it actually is."

If your purchased Nutella between January 2008 and Feb. 3 of this year, you may file a claim HERE. The deadline to file is July 5.

The company has agreed to pay consumers $4 per jar -- up to $20.
