King’s Hawaiian Misleads About Where Its Rolls Are Made, Lawsuit Claims
NY Post | 12/29/2020 | Rebecca Rosenberg and Jorge Fitz-Gibbon

King’s Hawaiian sweet rolls are not Hawaiian enough, a new lawsuit charges.

The class-action suit, filed Friday in Manhattan federal court, accuses the maker of the popular baked products of defrauding consumers by suggesting they’re still made in the Aloha State.

In fact, they’re made in California.

“King’s Hawaiian has been known as the most authentic purveyor of its eponymous Hawaiian rolls,” Long Island attorney Spencer Sheehan, who filed the lawsuit on behalf of a Yonkers man and others, told The Post on Tuesday.

“Unfortunately, they’re labeling gives consumers the impression that it’s made in Hawaii,” he said. “It’s not.”

The lawsuit names Yonkers resident Robert Galinsky as the chief plaintiff.
