That’s right, LaCroix, one of the most popular drink phenomenas to have happened in the past couple of years is being sued for their use of the word ‘natural’ in advertising their product.

The lawsuit is claiming that the popular sparkling water contains harsh, cancer causing chemicals such as limonene and linalool. A nutritional scientist, however, states that the amount in which these chemicals are used are in a safe amount. He also states that these particular compounds are found in natural fruits such as pineapples, limes, strawberries, and bananas.
