Mondelez International has filed a federal lawsuit against Aldi, accusing the supermarket chain of infringing on the trade dress of several of its most popular snack brands, including Oreo, Oreo Thins, Wheat Thins, Nutter Butter, and Chips Ahoy!

The complaint, filed May 30 in the Northern District of Illinois, alleges Aldi’s private-label “Benton’s” brand uses packaging designs that closely mimic Mondelez’s products in a way that misleads consumers and violates federal trademark laws.

AMSTERDAM (WKRC) - A popular confectionery company has pulled bags of gummies due to a potential cannabis contamination.

According to The New York Post, Haribo has pulled its "Happy Cola F!ZZ" gummies from the shelves after multiple members of a Dutch family reported a "dizziness" after consuming the soda-bottle shaped snacks.

After learning that the gummies had been potentially tainted with cannabis, Haribo issued a nationwide recall across the European country, the publication reported.

The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority (NVWA) told Dutch news outlet Hart van Nederland that "samples were taken and cannabis was found in them. Do not eat the sweets."


Haribo confirmed that it is working alongside authorities to investigate the contamination, adding that it appears only a single batch in the Netherlands was tainted, and none in any other country, per The Post.

As a precaution, Haribo made the decision to pull all bags with a best-before date of January 2026 in the Netherlands.

According to the publication, the company will also issue full refunds to all customers who purchased bags affected by the recall.

“The safety of our consumers is our highest priority and Haribo takes this incident very seriously, which is why a recall has been issued in the Netherlands,” Haribo said in a statement obtained by The Post.
 
I used to have one of these..



The 1964 Creepy Crawlers Thingmaker by Mattel unleashed the inner mad scientist in every kid, turning blobs of plastic goop into armies of rubbery bugs. It was the era of hands-on fun, where a little heat and a lot of imagination could spawn a whole ecosystem of colorful critters.

Being in the same county means nothing. Depending on the county it could have a couple main distribution hubs, and each town/city has it's own office. Plenty of places for it to get lost on it's way back. given it's the PO I'd say they are lucky to have gotten it back at all.
