Turning the Law on Itself: In an attempt to draw attention to a silly law, a group is suing an organic bread maker, because their product causes cancer. This lawsuit is a joke, along the same lines as the "Letters from a Nut" books, but some activists in California really are going after makers of french fries:
The nation's top French fry sellers, McDonald's and Burger King, have already been targeted in the acrylamide scare by a small California environmental group which has been accused in the past of "bounty hunting" for flooding California authorities with Proposition 65 notices.
Burger King said last week the legal action was "frivolous and totally ludicrous."
