Lawsuit Questioning Taco Bell's 88% Beef Dropped

It seems law firm Beasley Allen has caused enough trouble and is dropping their lawsuit against Taco Bell that claimed the fast food chain's taco meat filling only contained 36% beef.

Beasley Allen said the goal of the lawsuit was for "Taco Bell [to] make certain changes regarding disclosure and marketing of its 'seasoned beef' product." Since the suit was filed, Taco Bell has spent between $3 and $4 million convincing the public that their taco filling actually contains 88% beef. The company even gave away 10 million free tacos. Well, that's a relief? Anyway, that seems to be good enough for the law firm, and thus the suit has been dropped.
