French activists sue 'deceptive' laughing gas suppliers
"Nitrous oxide has significant public-health impacts: young people lose the ability to move, there are burns and accidents."
"The suit will allow the group to go after those using deceptive forms of communication aimed at young people."
"We ceased all sales to France and closed our Cream Deluxe webshop... specifically because of clear signs of non-culinary misuse."
"I've never seen one and reject the idea that the canisters have a culinary use."
The Antoine Alleno association is suing companies selling nitrous oxide, alleging deceptive marketing aimed at youth. The group, led by chef Yannick Alleno, claims the gas has serious health impacts, including accidents and loss of mobility. The lawsuit targets the companies behind Cream Deluxe, which promotes the gas as a party accessory. The association seeks to bar these companies from operating in France due to their marketing practices. Nitrous oxide was linked to over 450 serious road accidents in France last year, a significant increase over six years.
