"Plaintiffs filed this lawsuit against the Defendants alleging the Defendants' labeling of Breyers® Natural Vanilla ice cream gave consumers the impression the ice cream contained vanilla flavor derived only from the vanilla plant and not from non-vanilla plant sources, and allege that it contained non-vanilla plant vanilla flavors," the settlement states.
