The fast food giant is being sued for false advertising.
A class-action lawsuit was filed Friday in federal court in California by the Montgomery, Ala., law firm Beasley, Allen, Crow, Methvin, Portis & Miles on behalf of a California woman, Amanda Obney according to the New York Daily News.
The lawsuit claims the "taco meat filling" used by Taco Bell contains is only about 35% beef, with binders, extenders, preservatives, additives and other agents making up the other 65%.
Obney doesn't want money, she just wants Taco Bell to stop claiming they are selling customers beef.
"We are asking that they stop saying that they are selling beef," the law firm representing Obney says.
Taco Bell spokesman Rob Poetsch said the company plans to "vigorously defend the suit."
"Taco Bell prides itself on serving high quality Mexican inspired food with great value. We're happy that the millions of customers we serve every week agree," he added
