Excerpted from the full article at the Environmental Leader:

Law firm the Chanler Group has filed Proposition 65 civil complaints in the Superior Court of California against spice and flavoring manufacturer McCormick & Company, coffee and flavoring manufacturer Farmer Bros., and Adams Extract & Spice, LLC. The complaints charge the three defendants with distributing food extracts, flavors and colorings containing unacceptable levels of the carcinogenic chemical 4-Methylimidazole, or 4-MEI, without a proper consumer warning label.  link to source
