BLOSSOM FARM v. KASSON CHEESE
Court of Appeals of Wisconsin (1986) | 133 Wis.2d 386; 395 N.W.2d 619
TL;DR: Blossom sued Kasson for $138,306 owed for a cheese additive. Although the sale was legal, Blossom knowingly continued supplying the additive to facilitate Kasson’s mislabeling of imitation cheese as real cheese. The court affirmed dismissal because enforcing payment would contravene public policy.
Legal Significance: The decision distinguishes a contract’s legality from its enforceability on public-policy grounds. Applying Restatement principles, it bars recovery when a supplier’s knowledgeable course of dealing facilitates a buyer’s improper use, even though the underlying sale is legal and the supplier has performed.
