3260. Adulteration of Cheddar cheese.    IT. S. v. 22 Boxes of Cheese.    Decree of
condemnation and destruction.    (F. D. C. No. 6859.    Sample No. &5256-E.)
This product was contaminated  with  hairs -resembling  those  of  rodents.
On February 13, 1942, the United States attorney for the Eastern District 
of Washington filed a libel against 22 boxes of cheese at Spokane, Wash., alleging 
that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about January 26, 
1942, by Gold Medal Dairies, Inc., from Grantsdale, Mont.; 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.
On April 2, 1942, the sole intervener having withdrawn its claim, judgment of 
condemnation was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
