The family of Sarah Katz, who had a heart condition, filed a lawsuit alleging Panera failed to properly warn the public about the ingredients in the highly caffeinated beverage.
The Food and Drug Administration said Wednesday that it is “gathering information” about the death of a young woman with a heart condition who a lawsuit alleges died after she consumed a highly caffeinated lemonade from Panera Bread.
” Photos of the menu and the beverage dispensers in the store included in the wrongful death lawsuit show it was advertised as “plant-based and clean,” containing as much caffeine as the restaurant’s dark roast coffee. But at 390 milligrams, the large Charged Lemonade has more caffeine in total than any size of the company’s dark roast coffee, the complaint adds — numbers that appear to line up with the nutrition facts on Panera’s website.
