Pizza eaters want $250 million after Papa John's delivers spam

Here's one more cost Papa John's can pass along to employees and customers. Already getting zinged for his dubious math on Obamacare, CEO John Schnatter's pizza chain has now been hit with a $250 million class action lawsuit claiming it bombarded customers with half a million unwanted text messages. The alerts delivered up to 15 messages in a row, and often in the wee hours. Papa John's lawyers note that the relationship with a third-party mass text service has been discontinued, but plaintiffs want an extra-large settlement: $500 per text. Apparently, spam isn't one of those "better ingredients." [Source]
