Who Is Behind The Boston Foundry Class Action Lawsuit
Boston Foundry’s Made in Cookware is a class action lawsuit, and it’s stirring up some serious allegations. The cookware company is getting called out for claiming their pots and pans are all non-toxic and free from the nasties.
Turns out, the secret sauce is polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), part of the PFAS family. Now, they’re not using perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA). These chemicals, whether PTFE or PFOA, are like the unwelcome guests that don’t leave easily. They stick around in the environment and our bodies, earning them the nickname ‘forever chemicals.’
How Much Is The Settlement
There is no amount for now. The lawsuit is dropping some serious knowledge bombs, saying those claims of being chemical and PFAS-free are breaking the law in California. Why? Well, the lawsuit argues that making these claims is like trying to prove a magic trick – incredibly hard, unlikely to be true, and therefore, misleading to us consumers.
But wait, there’s more! Consumer Reports did a little investigative cooking of their own in 2022. They tested cookware claiming to be PFAS-free because it’s coated in PTFE (that’s the stuff in the Boston Foundry cookware), and guess what they found? PFAS! So, those labels shouting “PFOA-free” might not be as reliable as we thought.
