3320. Misbranding of canned corn. U. S. v, 114 Cases of Canned Corn. Consent 
decree of condemnation. Product ordered released under bond
' to be 
relabeled.   (P. D. C. No. 6797.   Sample No. 54473-E.)
On January 30, 1942, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of 
Pennsylvania filed a libel against 114 cases, each containing 24 No. 2 cans, of corn 
at Philadelphia, Pa., alleging that the article had been shipped on or about Octo- 
ber 18, 1941, by Empire State Canning Co. from Stacy Basin, N. Y.; and charg- 
ing that it was misbranded. It was labeled in part: (Cans) "Uco Our Best 
Grade Fancy Cream Style Golden Sweet Com * * * Uco Food Corp. 
Newark, N. J. Distributors." 
492053'—42 4
The article was alleged to be misbranded in that the term "Fancy" was false 
and misleading as applied to an article that was not Fancy because it was too 
mature.
On February 24, 1942, Empire State Canning Co. having appeared as claimant, 
judgment of condemnation was entered and the product was ordered released 
under bond to be relabeled under the supervision of the Food and Drug 
Administration.
