Ziploc and Bread Giants Face Lawsuit: Sandwiches in Legal Peril
In an unexpected courtroom cameo, SC Johnson, master of the Ziploc kingdom, and Bimbo Bakeries, the bread-and-snack Goliath that makes half our lunchboxes questionable, are under legal crossfire. This lawsuit targets the very essence of packed lunches – plastic bags and slices of bread. While neither company pleaded guilty to ruining our snacks, the timing couldn't be better for lawyers specializing in crumbs.

If lawsuits went stale like bread, we'd all be suing stale bread by now.
