Samples of this candy were found to contain rodent hairs or insect fragments, 
or both.
On April 17, 1941, the United States attorney for the Northern District of 
Texas filed a libel against 28 boxes of candy at Lubbock, Tex., alleging that 
the article had been shipped on or about April 7, 1941, by the Cosner Candy 
Co. from Denver, Colo.; and charging that it was adulterated in that it con- 
sisted wholly or in part of a filthy substance, and in that it had been prepared 
under insanitary conditions whereby it might have become contaminated with 
filth. It was labeled in part: "5# Wintergreen [or "Mint," "Lime," or 
"Lemon"] Banquet Wafers"; or "144 Pure Lemon [or "Cinnamon," "Lime," or 
"Peppermint"] Sticks."
On May 29, 1941, the shipper and the consignee having accepted service, 
waived publication and' notice, and consented to the entry of a decree, judgm- 
ent of condemnation was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
