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. Who knew that America's biggest manufacturers of bagged bread and snack food could one day be the villains behind the lunch table drama? If lawsuits went stale like bread, we'd all be suing stale bread by now.

Ziploc and Bimbo Bakeries under fire—because nothing says food drama like suing your sandwich’s wrappers and bread. Here’s hoping the lawyers get crumbs too.
When the makers of your sandwich’s bread and bag go to court, you realize your lunch breaks are more legally complicated than your taxes.
