The court in Bremen makes a rule. It is about Milka chocolate. The company is called Mondelez. Mondelez changes the weight of bars. Before, the package has 100 grams. Now it has 90 grams.
The package looks almost the same. It is only a tiny bit thinner. Customers do not see the difference. The court says: This is a fake package. It breaks the law for fair trade. The company tricks the customers.
Mondelez cannot sell the 90 gram bar like this. This rule applies to old 100 gram bars. One must see the difference clearly. The consumer group from Hamburg takes the case to court. They want to protect the customers.
The rule does not change current bars. The time limit of 4 months is over. But the rule is good for the future. Other firms cannot trick customers. Mondelez can fight the rule in court. The rule is not final yet.
