Lawsuit against Subway claims chicken, pork, and cattle DNA detected in tuna sandwiches

Published November 11, 2021 4:14pm ET



Plaintiffs in a lawsuit against Subway over its tuna sandwiches filed a second, amended complaint on Nov. 8 asserting that Subway’s “tuna” contains chicken, pork, and cattle DNA.

The plaintiffs, Karen Dhanowa and Nilima Amin, previously filed the suit arguing that Subway’s tuna was not authentic. A judge dismissed the case on Oct. 7 with “leave to amend,” saying that the plaintiffs did not adequately identify the misstatements that they alleged Subway made. With the new assertions, the plaintiffs are hoping to move the case forward.
