MillerCoors sues Anheuser-Busch over corn syrup Super Bowl ads via YahooFinance
Beer giant MillerCoors is suing Anheuser-Busch, a subsidiary of beer giant Anheuser-Busch InBev , over a series of Bud Light ads that ran during this year’s Super Bowl.
After the commercial aired, MillerCoors tweeted: “We’re proud of our high-quality, great-tasting beers. We’re also proud that none of our products include any high fructose corn syrup.” “We have always believed in transparency, which is why we were the first major brewer to put nutritional information and all of our ingredients online. But while its Bud Light brand is talking all about transparency, Anheuser-Busch has admitted that its campaign was designed to mislead the public. Anheuser-Busch is fearmongering over a common beer ingredient it uses in many of its own beers, as a fermentation aid that is not even present in the final product.
Kevin Ross, an Iowa-based farmer and first vice president of the NCGA, previously told Yahoo Finance: “They implied that [corn syrup] was an inferior product and that the other beers were doing something wrong because they use corn syrup in the brewing process,” . “It’s a sugar; plants have sugars and corn, like many others, has sugars, and it’s used to turn yeast into alcohol.”
