Snopes is saying it's unconfirmed so far.


snopes.com: Beneful Brand Dog Food Is Harming Dogs?
The Snopes article is from 2007, so it doesn't take into account this new lawsuit. The new lawsuit is in its initial phases, so it hasn't been decided yet. However, the lawsuit is being widely reported in the press, so it's not a frivolous lawsuit. One of the articles I read about the lawsuit said that Beneful contains propylene glycol and mycotoxins. Propylene glycol is mildly to moderately toxic (see Propylene Glycol - Pet Poison Helpline) and mycotoxins are extremely toxic in any quantity. I'd rather be safe than sorry, and change from Beneful to a more trustworthy brand.
