Target recently upgraded its gift cards to make them more secure. Walmart is now being sued for not doing the same.

A New Jersey woman has filed a lawsuit against Walmart, accusing the retailer of selling her a compromised gift card, refusing to reimburse her, and allegedly doing the same to hundreds or thousands of other Walmart shoppers.

In a case initially filed in state court and now transferred to federal court, Kimberly Palazzi accused Walmart of knowing that its gift cards are susceptible to fraud, doing nothing to prevent it, not making it right for victimized customers, and joining the criminals in profiting from the scheme. Here’s the full article from Coupons in the News.

Fructose consumption has increased considerably over the past five decades, largely due to the widespread use of high-fructose corn syrup as a sweetener in beverages and ultra-processed foods. New research from Washington University in St. Louis shows that dietary fructose promotes tumor growth in animal models of melanoma, breast cancer and cervical cancer. However, fructose does not directly fuel tumors, according to the study published Dec. 4 in the journal Nature.

Instead, WashU scientists discovered that the liver converts fructose into usable nutrients for cancer cells, a compelling finding that could open up new avenues for care and treatment of many different types of cancer.
