Question 1 – Australian Consumer Law        

Natural Ice Cream Co is a company that advertises its ice cream as ‘all natural’, made in the Barossa Valley (in South Australia), and from milk produced by Australian cows.

It has been discovered, that actually the ice cream is made in Victoria, 1000’s of kilometres away from the Barossa Valley.
