This product contained rodent hairs and insect fragments.
On November 8, 1941, the United States attorney for the Southern District 
of Illinois filed a libel against 82 eases of apple butter at Peoria, Ill., alleging 
that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about October 
6,1941, by Kroger Grocery & Bating Co. from St. Louis, Mo.; and charging that 
it was adulterated in that it consisted wholly or in part of a filthy substance. 
The article was labeled in part: (Jars) "Kroger's Country Club Quality Brand 
Apple Butter."
On March 23, 1942, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
