LOS ANGELES (Legal Newsline) – A California woman is suing a popular banana producer alleging, among other things, that its process for growing the fruit poisons local residents.

Tania Campbell filed the lawsuit on April 17 in U.S. District Court Central District of California against Chiquita Brands International, Inc. claiming the producer doesn’t follow its own strict standards for growing bananas in other countries. It is at least the second recent class action against Chiquita over its banana production.
