NEW YORK (WPIX) – If you purchased a Clif Bar within the last few years, you may be entitled to monetary compensation as part of a $12 million class action settlement. A lawsuit against Clif Bar & Company alleged that Clif Bars and Clif Kid ZBars were unhealthy due to added sugars, despite being advertised with slogans like "Nutrition for Sustained Energy" and "No High Fructose Corn Syrup" on the product's packaging.

Clif Bar had agreed to the class action settlement earlier this year, though the company has denied that its products are unhealthy and said the labels on packaging were not misleading, according to the claims administrator. 23andMe agrees to $30M settlement over 2023 data breach: How much could users get?
