2293. Adulteration of candy.    U. S. v. 30 Cartons of Candy.    Default decree of
condemnation and destruction.    (F. D. C. No. 5020.    Sample No. 29847-E.)
This product contained insects and rodent hairs.
On June 26, 1941, the United States attorney for the Southern District of 
Indiana filed a libel against 30 cartons of candy at Richmond, Ind., alleging 
that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about May 13, 
1941, by the Eavey Co. from Xenia, Ohio; and charging that it was adulterated. 
The article was labeled in part: (Cartons) "Captain Chocolate Drops."
The article was alleged to be adulterated in that it consisted 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.
On August 8, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
