932. Adulteration of candy.    IT. S. v. 14 Boxes and 20 Boxes of Candy.    Default
decrees of condemnation and destruction.     (F. D. C. No. 1933.    Sample Nos. 
8112-E, 8113-E.)
Samples taken from both shipments of this product were found to contain 
rodent hairs, and those taken from one of the shipments were also found to 
contain insect fragments.
On May 7, 1940, the United States attorney for the District of Minnesota 
filed libels against 34 boxes of candy at St. Paul, Minn., alleging that the article 
had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about November 24, 1939, and 
March 15, 1940, by the Northwestern Candy Co. from Des Moines, Iowa; and 
charging that it was adulterated. It was labeled in part: "Jacobson's Dairy 
Maid Pecan Cake"; or "Dairy Maid * * * Maple [or "Cherry" or 
"Vanilla"]."
It was alleged to be adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of 
a filthy substance, and in that it had been prepared under insanitary condi- 
tions whereby it might have become contaminated with filth.
On June 21, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgments of condemnation 
were entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
