Eden Foods sues over birth control mandate

Eden Foods, which describes itself as "the oldest natural and organic food company in North America," is coming under fire from its tofu-eating customers.


Some are threatening to stop buying Eden Foods, which sells dried tofu, soymilk, seaweed and other foods associated with healthy eating, over the company's stand against a mandate in Obamacare.


The backlash started when Eden Foods sued the Obama administration last month over a clause in the Affordable Care Act that will require employer-sponsored health insurance plans to provide contraceptive coverage to workers. According to the lawsuit, Obamacare "attacks and desecrates a foremost tenet of the Catholic Church" that defines birth control as "immoral and unnatural."
