Quaker Oats class action lawsuit settlement: Here's a list of products eligible for refunds
Quaker Oats has agreed to pay out $6.75 million to settle the lawsuit that claimed it misled consumers by selling some snacks and cereals as safe, although they were actually contaminated with salmonella.
Notably, the lawsuit was filed after the recalls of several Quaker products in December 2023 and January 2024. Concerns led to the recall because several packages were produced at a facility that tested positive for salmonella.
Quaker hasn't admitted to any wrongdoing, but it has agreed to a settlement.
Now, if you purchased one or more of the recalled products, you may be eligible for a full or partial refund.

With proof of purchase (such as receipts), you can receive a full refund of the recalled items you bought.
Without proof, you can still get a refund for up to two products, based on average retail price, plus 10% for sales tax.
If you have already received a reimbursement from Quaker, that amount will be deducted from your settlement.
Deadline to submit a claim: June 27, 2025
Deadline to opt out or object: June 27, 2025
Final approval hearing: August 4, 2025
