"Florida Woman Sues Hershey for $5M Over 'Deceptive' Reese's Holiday Candy Packaging"

TL;DR
Hershey is being sued in a proposed class action lawsuit for at least $5 million by a Florida woman, Cynthia Kelly, who claims the company's holiday-themed Reese’s peanut butter candies do not feature the artistic details advertised on the packaging. Kelly argues that the lack of "explicit carved out artistic designs" on the candies, such as the missing carvings on the Reese’s Peanut Butter Pumpkins, is misleading to consumers. The lawsuit seeks damages for Florida purchasers of various Reese’s holiday-themed products, alleging violations of Florida's consumer protection laws.
