Suits were filed early last year soon after Menu Foods Inc. recalled 60 million containers of 90 brands of pet food. The plaintiffs claim unfair and deceptive trade practices; negligence in failing to provide adequate quality control; unjust enrichment and breach of implied and express warranties. Some suits claim emotional trauma.
