25009. Adulteration of process   cheese.     V.  S.  v.  30  Cases  of Process  Cheese.
Default decree of condemnation and destruction. (F. & D. no. 35367. 
Sample no. 4795-B.)
This case involved an interstate shipment of process cheese which contained 
segments of the bodies of insects, rodent hairs, and nondescript debris.
On April 11, 1935, the United States attorney for the District of Maryland, 
acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the district court 
a libel praying seizure and condemnation of 30 cases of process cheese at Balti- 
more, Md., consigned by the Kraft-Phenix Cheese Corporation, Freeport, Ill., 
alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about 
March 23, 1935, from Freeport, Ill., and charging adulteration in violation of 
the Food and Drugs Act. The article was labeled in part: "Kraft Limburger 
Pasteurized Process Cheese, * * * Kraft-Phenix Cheese Corporation * * * 
Baltimore, Md."
The article was alleged to be adulterated in that it consisted wholly or in 
part of a filthy animal substance.
On June 10, 1935, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and it was ordered that the product be destroyed.
TV. R. GBEGG, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
