1866. Adulteration of candy.   IT. S. v. 5 and 10 Cans of Candy.   Default decree of
condemnation and destruction.     (F. D. C. No. 3651.    Sample No. 50707-E.)
Examination showed that this product was contaminated with rodent hairs.
On January 13, 1941, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of 
Virginia filed a libel against 5 cans each containing 40 pounds, and 10 cans each 
containing 20 pounds of candy at Parksley, Va., alleging that the article had 
been shipped in interstate commerce on or about December 18, 1940, by the Wm. 
T. Kearney Co. from Baltimore, Md.; and charging that it was adulterated in 
that it consisted in whole 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. The article was labeled in part: "High Lustre Confections Sunshine 
Kisses."
On February 7, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
