A California resident is suing Texas Pete hot sauce because it’s made in North Carolina. This is not something the brand is trying to hide. The About Us section of Texas Pete’s website begins, “So how is it that a tasty red pepper sauce made in North Carolina happens to be named ‘Texas Pete’ anyway?”
Two other consumers are claiming Barilla’s tagline, “Italy’s No. 1 brand of pasta” led them to believe the product was made in Italy.
