IRVINE (CBS/AP) — An Alabama law firm claims in a lawsuit that Taco Bell is using false advertising when it refers to using “seasoned ground beef” or “seasoned beef” in its products.
The meat mixture sold by Taco Bell restaurants contains binders and extenders and does not meet the minimum requirements set by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to be labeled as “beef,” according to the legal complaint.
The class-action lawsuit was filed Friday in federal court in the Central District of California by the Montgomery law firm Beasley, Allen, Crow, Methvin, Portis & Miles.
Attorney Dee Miles said attorneys had Taco Bell’s “meat mixture” tested and found it contained less that 35 percent beef.
The lawsuit on behalf of Taco Bell customer and California resident Amanda Obney does not seek monetary damages, but asks the court to order Taco Bell to be honest in its advertising.
“We are asking that they stop saying that they are selling beef,” Miles said.
Irvine-based Taco Bell spokesman Rob Poetsch said the company denies that its advertising is misleading.
“Taco Bell prides itself on serving high quality Mexican inspired food with great value. We’re happy that the millions of customers we serve every week agree,” Poetsch said. He said the company would “vigorously defend the suit.”
The lawsuit said that Taco Bell’s “seasoned beef” contains other ingredients, including water, wheat oats, soy lecithin, maltodrextrin, anti-dusting agent and modified corn starch.

Keeps the meat from clumping together and balling up. Used in salt and if you ever buy shredded cheese in the store it is covered in a similar product.

The most common anti-dusting agent I’m aware of it sunflower oil. Added at the rate of perhaps one part per 300, it prevents fine particles from escaping during processing.

“The notion that persons should be safe from extermination as long as they do not commit willful murder, or levy war against the Crown, or kidnap, or throw vitriol, is not only to limit social responsibility unnecessarily, and to privilege the large range of intolerable misconduct that lies outside them, but to divert attention from the essential justification for extermination, which is always incorrigible social incompatibility and nothing else.”

You have to be kidding! You would really eat that horrible tasting beef after knowing what’s in it? I didn’t like the sauce they used, but understand now it was to cover up the other ingredients. Many people are allergic to some of these fillers, and they should have made this public years ago. Sue their pants off for deceptive advertising. Now I wonder if the beans are real? Geez, now I know why I hate eating at fast food places besides the taste. I have always suspected Arby’s uses this sort of stuff in their beef sandwiches. Enough eating krap for me.

100% beef would mean they’d use other types of filler.. beaks and hooves, tongues, eyes. would you rather have that? the fact is that the filler you people are so horrified over is similar to TVP (textured vegetable protein) – it’s used in almost all the vegetarian meat substitutes like Boca. The fact is that vegetable proteins are cheaper than meat to grow, harvest, store, and produce. Using 100% grade-a beef mince in your 99cent taco would raise it to a $2 taco, or close to it. They made a fiscally-reasonable decision that most likely every fast food restaurant on earth has also made.
And this vegetable filler in the meat is actually healthier for you than the actual meat.

How does Taco Bueno sell 100% beef tacos for $1 then?
January 25, 2011 at 8:40 am
I don’t eat their tacos because they cost .99 and you can’t make a wholesome taco for .99 even mass produced. If they charged $3 per taco and used better ingredients, I would be eat their regularly.

All you people saying “If it were 100% beef, it would just be other fillers” have ZERO idea what you are talking about.
BEEF is the tasty edible meat on a cow. Beef is not filler. Bones, cartilage, organs, these things ARE NOT BEEF. If something is 100% beef, it means 100% beef, and NO FILLER.
You’re a bunch swarmy little liars.

ali, taco bell tastes good according to a huge percentage of the American population, sorry to break it to you. also i would much rather eat TVPs than gross bits and pieces of the cow….i would even prefer sawdust to cow eyes, no offense to anyone who enjoys those….
oh and “krap” is spelled with a ‘c’, not a ‘k’.
January 25, 2011 at 3:08 pm
Jamie, they’re still using meat slurry to produce the beef portion anyway so why are you defending taco bell? the issue that i see here isn’t about the percentages of what goes into their sloppy joe mix, it’s about the quality control of the franchise. when they say they’re serving quality beef they’re flat out lying, the beef used at taco bell could possibly pass as utility and even at that point is bellow the standards of many pet food companies. Taco bell is cheap, but it’s also trash.

In all seriousness, I think it’s really sad that you have to put on elitist airs when people talk about where they like to eat. It’s funny to listen to people who have bought in to the nutrition-nazi nonsense. Food is food; if you eat “highly nutritious” food, your body will only absorb what it needs. The rest is flushed out. You would be surprised how little nutrition your body actually needs. Now who is foolish for purchasing cheaper food?

And now they are after our “organic” food supplies.

That’s why the USDA defines what you can call “beef” as having at least 35% beef in to. Some people are completely misunderstanding this lawsuit. IT IS AGAINST THE LAW to call it ground beef if it has less than 35% beef. I would hope everyone as a consumer should be in support of these laws and their enforcement. These laws are to protect us from being deceived. Its ok for taco bell serve up their meat mix, but calling it ground beef IS ILLEGAL in this case.

To the taco bell lovers who are worried their mystery meat burritos might change:
This lawsuit is about false advertising, not trying to force liberal ideals or healthy eating habits on the public. All this lawsuit is saying is taco bell cant call it beef since the meat does not meet usda requirements. If your milk was 35% milk 65% soy, corn starch, wheat oats, and water, would you call it milk? Taco bell will have to call it something else or change the recipe to meet standards
Personally, I’ve always thought taco bell’s meat was glorified cat food. Now I learn is even worse!

REDUCE BEEF / INCREASE FILLERS: Yummm
I’m fine with reducing beef percentage below 35%, but this should be reflected in the labeling and advertising. Caveat emptor (buyer beware) applies to food, as it does to all our purchases. Much of the fast food beef is from Argentina and Mexico. One can only speculate as to the meat quality from slaughtered “downer cattle”, tendons, tongues, tails, facial muscles, nostrils, udders, labia, foreskins, spinal cord, ligaments, vermin, antibiotics, “insect parts” and e coli bacteria in the products shipped to us. (A 1975 Chateau Haut-Brion Bordeaux pairs well with this.)
I’ve much more appetite for the fillers. Lecithin, derived from soy, helps mix different ingredients, acting as an emulsifier and surfactant, permitting a better mouth sensation. Maltodextrin, usually produced from corn starch, serves as a sweetener…think glucose syrup– No animal parts here. I’d like to see a transition to soy-based pseudo-meat that is clearly labeled. I’m no vegan: for me, prime rib is in the legume food group. However my earlier research experience in the US and overseas makes me cautious. The anatomic parts listed above, though disgusting, contain proteins, collagen, B-vitamins, fat, and other nutrients. Even rat meat and insect parts, having a measure of nutritional benefit in humans, are readily consumed in parts of Asia. However, one should take strong exception to antibiotics, hormones, organophosphates and bacteria in any food product.
Mr.Glen Bell, a former Marine (Semper Fi!) and founder of Taco Bell, sold his commercial interests in 1978 to PepsiCo. Most of the accompanying postings are negative, yet some are quite clever. For my part, the collective comments don’t sway me away from an occasional Taco Bell visit for some Mexican-inspired mystery meat.
Truthful transparency in labeling and advertising is the core issue here, and should include proper percent of meat and byproducts with warnings of soy and wheat content for those persons with allergies. In the meantime, I’d like a side order of anti-dusting agent, with two extra packets of the hot sauce. Yum.

A few years ago the firm sued Solutia for letting pcp into ground water in Anniston, AL. And Solutia should have been sued. But Beasley teamed up with late Johnnie Cochran. The case settled. Cochran collected $29 million, Beasley collected $36 million and thier 15,000 clients got less than $8,000 each.

The prosecuting attorney will state their complaint and the defenses will counter with their story and then the prosecution will call their first witness probably the lab tech that ran the test that stated that only 35% of their meet product was beef and the prosecution attorney will ask them ” how much beef was in the Taco Bell meat?” and they will testify “only 35%” and the defense will have their turn at the lab tech and ask “you just testified that there was only 35% beef in Taco Ball’s beef tacos is that correct?” The tech will reply “Yes” and the defense attorney will say “So you did find beef in the beef Tacos” and the lab tech will reply “Yes we did” the defense attorney will say the “defenses rests” and the case will be over the first day and everyone will go home early.

As a lifelong South Texan, I am appalled that anyone would eat at that place. True Tex-Mex joints never put sour cream on anything, have at least one velvet painting on the walls, and any meat from goat to collie is considered “beef.”

Everybody- you missed the biggest clue out there:: When was the last time you ate at a real Mexican joint that had no Mexican workers? Kinda like going to an “authentic” Chinese restaurant and there are no Chinese cooks. God forbid a French restaurant owned and run by Koreans. Or a hamburger joint run by Asians. Why does it always involve us Asians? Solution: call it “beef-like” tacos, and in California, call it, “like beef, tacos.”

I hope you don’t have to have authentic employees to work at all restaurants. If so then here in West Texas we are in trouble. Most all or our fast food restaurants have all Mexican employees (Oops sorry not politically correct) Hispanic Employees. If that’s the case then all our McDonald’s, Wendy’s and doughnut shops are all Mexican restaurants.

Comes down to this: if your company, like most other companies, makes a fiscal decision to save money, inform your customers so they can decide, based on their own lives and needs, whether to continue buying your product. Since I’m not allergic to anything in Taco Bell tacos, I’ll keep eating them from time to time. Since my daughter is allergic to corn, now I know why she got really sick after eating a Taco Bell taco, and she won’t be eating them anymore. There’s no need for histrionics.

I personally like Purina dog biscuits. They are nutrionally complete and handy snacks at any time. I carried some in my pocket to nibble on. It also worked to help me stop smoking. Unfortunately I had to give up those doggie treats after waking up in a hospital with a bunch of tubes and wires sticking out of my body. You see, I met a lovely Irish setter on the street one day.

Seriously if you are so worried about what is in your Taco Hell taco. go to the grocery store buy the things you like on your tacos and MAKE YOUR OWN!!!!! At least that way you know exactly what is in them. People make such a big fuss about fast food and how terrible it is. If you make your own food and quit being so lazy, you would know what was in your food and you would be able to make better food choices for yourself and your families.

If someone allergic to beef and ate the Taco from Taco Bell, and died, I guess they would then say it contained beef. You cannot have it both ways. How much beef before calling it beef? Hamberger is sold as beef and is pumped full of water, bone fragments, fat. Steak is pumped full of water too so it weighs heavy. Taco bell food tastes great, just change the way it is marketed.

I don’t eat at Taco Bell simply because they do offer poor quality beef. It’s their choice to do so and the free market dictates whether they sink or swim, as it should be. The problem here is a government set standard, not what some people will eat.

What’s funny is that we dear, discerning consumers are being fed the same things as CAFO cattle, pork, and chickens. Corn and soybeans. No matter where you look, unless you’re buying beef and eggs from your neighbor and growing your own produce, you are being fed the exact same diet as the T-bone steak you bought from the grocery store. And NO ONE seems to mind this.
And the idiota that said textured vegetable protein is healthier than the beef itself? Well, perhaps if you’re comparing it to CAFO meat, but it cannot compare to the enzymes, vitamins, and minerals found in grassfed, organic beef. We have to stop thinking about fat, calories, etc… and start thinking NOURISHMENT. If it doesn’t nourish your body, then don’t eat it. I give my kids all the local, pastured eggs they’ll eat. Same for pastured pork and grassfed beef. We don’t count calories or fat grams here, and we are all thin. No more grocery store white poison either – raw milk it is.

When I worked for Taco Bell back in the 60s everything was made from scratch. We used all raw beef and did not put additives in it, wepicked through 100lb bags of beans to make sure there were no rocks in them, we cooked them in hugh pressure cookers. Poured our sauces in those little cups and put the lids on them. The only thing that was prepackaged was the totillas and we has to fry the corn totillas. Everything is prepackaged now and all they have to do is put it together.

It’s cheap food people – what did you expect? Prime Rib?
Ever since the labeling laws got overtaken by “food scientists” this is what has been happening to you. Thank them for actually putting in 35% of the real thing in there….
“How is Beef Inspected?
Inspection is mandatory; **grading is voluntary**, and a plant pays to have its meat graded. USDA-graded beef sold at the retail level is Prime, Choice, and Select. Lower grades (Standard, Commercial, Utility, Cutter, and Canner) are mainly ground or used in processed meat products. Retail stores may use other terms which must be different from USDA grades.
USDA Prime beef (about two percent of graded beef) has more fat marbling, so it is the most tender and flavorful. However, it is higher in fat content. Most of the graded beef sold in supermarkets is USDA Choice or USDA Select. The protein, vitamin, and mineral content of beef are similar regardless of the grade.
How Is Ungraded Beef Different?
All beef is inspected for wholesomeness. The overall quality of ungraded beef may be higher or lower than most government grades found in retail markets.”

The meat is bought by a percentage of fillers, as Lip, utter, veins, and other by-products which make up about 30% in addition to the other non-beef fillers and binders it accounts for about a total of 65% of the meat substance. Although the binders and non-beef fillers have changed since bought by pepsico, even prior to that the meat has always had at least 30% of the lip, utter, viens, added fat, which is very noticeable uncooked and even non-cooked since the late 70′s

Partially due to the fact that they are controlled by big tobacco, and partially due to instances like this that result in the powerless sheeple gathering to banter back and forth on the inernet as apposed to facing the real source, the source we pay taxes so that we can trust our country is safely monitored and products offered are both safe and legal. Instead we are left to listen to biased uninformed reporters who are already thinking of their next story on the local swimming pools “code brown”.
