In a written recantation, the Plaintiff,

all the claims lodged against National Beverage. In the

LaCroix conducted by their hired laboratory made no findings that
LaCroix contained any artificial ingredients.
Rice and her lawyers confirmed they received no payment or
compensation, directly or indirectly, and agreed to the retraction
and dismissal of the lawsuit with prejudice. (See the complete
letter from Plaintiff, Lenora Rice, together with her counsel, the

“This dismissal confirms our promise to demonstrate that these
allegations had absolutely no merit and reaffirms that the Company
delivers a pure and innocent product,” stated a Company
spokesperson. “This is a vindication of National Beverage and
confirms the assurances we gave to our loyal following of LaCroix
consumers, our customers and our shareholders that this lawsuit was
baseless.”
We are grateful to our loyal consumers and healthy advocates
that continue to anticipate our new and exciting innovations,”
concluded the Company spokesperson.
