Class Action Lawsuit Alleges Popular Protein Bar Is Packed With Extra Fat & Calories

David Protein faces a class‑action lawsuit alleging its flagship protein bar vastly under‑reports calories and fat. Lab analysis found 268‑275 calories and 11‑13.5 grams of fat per bar, far exceeding the label’s 150 calories and 2 grams of fat. The complaint claims the discrepancy violates FDA labeling rules and seeks damages, restitution, and injunctive relief. Founder Peter Rahal disputes the claims, arguing the FDA’s measurement of the EPG ingredient explains the variance.
