2045. Adulteration of chili sauce.     U. S. v. 45 Cases and 20 Cases of Chili Sauce.
Default decrees of condemnation and destruction. (F. D. C. Nos. 4903, 
4904.    Sample Nos.^69522-E, 69523-E.)
On June 13, 1941, the United States attorney for the Southern District of 
New York filed libels against 65 cases, each containing 6 cans, of chili sauce 
at New York, N. Y., alleging that the article had been shipped from Los 
Angeles, Calif., by Kern Food Products, Inc., on or about October 24, 1940, and
March 19, 1941; and charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted in 
whole or in part of a decomposed substance. The article was labeled in part: 
"Kern's Fancy Chili Sauce   *    *    *     Net Weight 7 Lbs."
On July 24, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgments of condemnation 
were entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
