The parents of a Florida boy filed a lawsuit against a local Whole Foods store after the son had a severe allergic reaction to a dairy-free pizza they ordered in 2022.

The lawsuit filed in Pinellas County on Nov. 22 alleged that while the store’s employees were warned by the boy’s mother about the severity of the boy’s food allergy and anaphylactic reactions to consuming dairy, the warnings were not heeded. As a result, the pizza ordered by the boy’s mother, Lucy Lopes, had been made “half dairy-free” and “half-dairy,” according to the complaint.
