She just qualified for food stamps so decided to buy some meat and decided she will sue Sams? Hmmm

How is she going to sue Sam's if she eats the evidence? At the end of her narrative, she says she is going to cut out the brown spots so she doesn't have to taste it. Lots of luck suing a huge corporation like Sam's when there has been no injury from the allegedly bad meat.

LOL. Sam's will give her a full refund if she isn't satisfied with her purchase.

Lawsuit? Good luck with that.

Just glad she's buying meat instead of cake with her EBT.

Plenty of people looking for any kind of law suit especially in Florida, with all the ambulances chasing lawyers easier that working.

Go figure. Meat looked ok to me. She’s wasting her time and money
to hire a junior attorney to go up against Wal-Mart.

She must not be very experienced. Meat looked fine to me as well. NOW if there was green stuff growing on it...maybe I'd take it back and get a refund. Sueing a company like Walmart for what she preceives as bad meat....good luck with that lady!!

I just saw a Dan Newlin commercial, this case should be worth at least $300k. LOL.

I doubt any lawyer would take her case on a contingency basis.

Now, if she wanted to PAY one...

First, if the person was concerned about the meat and posted the “evidence” to social media, they have a duty to mitigate, which in this case would be not consuming the product and returning it to the point of sale for a satisfactory replacement or refund. If the meat appeared as tainted, why did the individual cut it up further rather than returning? For the example at hand, if the individual knowingly consumes the product and subsequently gets ill, they would not necessarily be successful in suit where they did not mitigate. That’s not to say if someone unsuspectingly purchases a food item and becomes ill, let say from listeria, they wouldn’t have a suit. Lots of that in the news lately. This would come under product liability law including negligence, breach of warranty, failure to warn, etc. in which case one of the local personal injury attorneys would consider. In the case at hand, just return the product for a satisfactory replacement or refund. (This should not be construed as legal advice; it is opinion.)
