This is the best summary I could come up with:
Cynthia Kelly filed a federal class-action lawsuit Thursday in the U.S. District Court in the Middle District of Florida, alleging several Reese's products don't match their photos as depicted on the wrappers.
For example, Reese's peanut butter pumpkins are merely pumpkin-shaped hunks of peanut-butter-stuffed chocolate, and the actual product has no Jack O'lantern-style carvings as the wrapper depicts, Kelly alleges.
She says the same is true for the peanut butter footballs and bats, as well as the white chocolate ghosts.
The suit says Kelly bought a bag of peanut butter pumpkins for $4.49 at an Aldi in Hillsborough County, Florida in late October 2023.
"Plaintiff and the members of the Class have been aggrieved by Defendant's unfair and deceptive practices," the suit reads.
CBS News Philadelphia has reached out to The Hershey Company for comment and will update if we hear back.
