Nation's largest grocery store accused of 'endangering' shoppers

The nation's largest grocery store operator is being sued for alleged false advertising the calorie count on one of its products.

The district attorneys from Venture and Santa Barbara counties filed a civil suit against Kroger, accusing them of misleading shoppers about the calorie county of its bread products, Carbmaster Wheat and White breads.

Prosecutors alleged that Kroger, which operates in as Ralphs, Food 4 Less, and Foods Co., violated the state's false advertising and unfair competition laws from late 2018 until June 2022 at least.
