A California woman is suing S.C. Johnson, the maker of Ziploc, because she says some of its products contain undisclosed microplastics that mislead and harm consumers.
Linda Cheslow of Santa Rosa, California, filed a class action complaint in U.S. District Court for Northern California on April 25, according to court records.
Cheslow's complaint alleges that some Ziploc products marketed as microwave or freezer safe release microplastics when they are microwaved or frozen, making them "fundamentally unfit" for their advertised use.
It called S.C. Johnson's alleged misrepresentation "unfair, unlawful, deceptive and misleading." The lawsuit is a class action, meaning it has been filed on behalf of anyone around the country who has purchased the products. USA TODAY has reached out to S.C. Johnson for comment.
