<p><strong>FOX NEWS:</strong> The suit against the YUM-brands chain also has a &#8220;beef&#8221; with the company&#8217;s advertising, charging its claims of using &#8220;seasoned ground beef&#8221; or &#8220;seasoned beef&#8221; in its food products is false. According to the suit filed by the Alabama  law firm Beasley, Allen, Crow, Methvin, Portis &amp; Miles, the  YUM-brands owned chain is using a meat mixture that contains binders and  extenders, and does not meet the minimum requirements set by the U.S.  Department of Agriculture to be labeled as &#8220;beef.” Attorney Dee Miles said the meat mixture  contained just 35 percent beef, with the remaining 65 percent containing  water, wheat oats, soy lecithin, maltodrextrin, anti-dusting agent and  modified corn starch. The suit was filed on behalf of Taco Bell customer and California resident Amanda Obney, who is not seeking monetary  damages, but instead wants a court to order Taco Bell to be honest in  its advertising. &#8220;We are asking that they stop saying that they are selling beef,&#8221; Miles said.<a href="http://www.foxnews.com/health/2011/01/25/wheres-beef-taco-bell-sued-ingredients/#ixzz1C8Jgfb92" style="color: #003399"> MORE</a></p>
<p><strong>RELATED: </strong>Another fast-food group, Wendy’s/Arby’s Group Inc., is making plans  to ditch one of its brands, in this case Arby’s, home of the great roast  beef sandwich, and in some locations, the delectable potato cake.  Wendy’s/Arby’s Group said it is “exploring strategic alternatives” for  Arby’s, which usually means the chain is on the block. Earlier this week, our friends at Yum Brands said they were keeping  Pizza Hut, Taco Bell and KFC, but looking to sell Long John Silver’s and  A&amp;W, home of the best on-tap root beer ever. <a href="http://blogs.wsj.com/marketbeat/2011/01/20/wendys-arbys-marriage-heads-for-split/" title="asdfasdfasdf" target="_blank">MORE</a></p>
