Tobacco Lawsuits
The first tobacco lawsuits were filed in the 1950s, but almost always failed. The tobacco companies argued that the harmful effects of smoking had been recognized for decades; people choose to smoke and so are personally responsible if they suffer ill effects.Slate: A Tobacco Lawsuit Primer (April 25, 2000)

Happy Meal Lawsuit
A prior threat of a CSPI lawsuit against Kellogg in 2006 led to a settlement agreement between the companies in which Kellogg set nutrition standards for foods that are advertised to a younger audience. Additionally, a lawsuit involving KFC's usage of partly hydrogenated vegetable oil, making its chicken high in unhealthy amounts of trans far, was dropped as KFC phased out this type of oil in cooking until its products were free of trans fat.
