A Massachusetts woman has filed a class action lawsuit against Trader Joe’s, claiming that the grocery store chain misleads consumers by selling “Honey Nut O’s” cereal that actually contains “only a minuscule amount of honey.”

Medford resident Anita Lima filed the suit in Boston federal court on Tuesday. She is seeking to represent a nationwide class of consumers who purchased a box of the cereal in the last five years.

“Defendant’s branding and packaging of ‘Trader Joe’s Honey Nut O’s’ convey that honey — and not sugar — is its primary sweetener,” the complaint says. “In truth, however, sugar (also referred to as white sugar) and brown sugar are the most prevalent sweeteners, and on information and belief the product contains only a miniscule amount of honey.”

The complaint, which was filed by Framingham law firm Quat Law Offices, argues that consumers were duped into paying more for the cereal than they would have been willing to pay had they known that sugar was the primary sweetener.

The list of ingredients on the box does not specify how much honey the cereal contains, according to Trader Joe’s’ website. The first five ingredients listed are, in order: whole grain oats, sugar, modified corn starch, brown sugar and honey.

The image on the front of the box portrays a honeycomb dripping honey onto a bowl of the cereal, which the complaint calls “deceptive.”

A representative for Trader Joe’s could not be immediately reached for comment. The Monrovia, California-based chain has 20 locations in Massachusetts, out of more than 470 nationwide.
