3503. Adulteration and misbranding of process cheese. U. S. v. 12 Bundles and 51 Bundles of Process Cheese. Consolidated decree of condemnation. Product ordered released under bond for reconditioning: and relabeling:. (F. D. C. Nos. 6974, 6975. Sample Nos. 89056-E, 89057-E.) « This product was found to contain more moisture and less fat than process cheese should contain. Portions were falsely labeled as to the name of the distributor. On March 5, 1942, the United States attorney for the District of New Jersey filed libels against 63 bundles, each containing 6 5-pound boxes of process cheese at Newark, N. J., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about January 8 and January 27, 1942, by Sunnette Cheese Corporation from New York, N. Y.; and charging that it was adulterated. It was labeled in part: "Wingdale [or "Elias"] Brand Pasteurized Process Cheese." The article was alleged to be adulterated (1) in that a valuable constituent, milk fat, had been in whole or in part omitted therefrom; (2) in that a substance containing more moisture and less fat than process cheese had been substituted wholly or in part for process cheese; and (3) in that water had been added thereto or mixed or packed therewith so as to increase its bulk or weight or reduce its quality or strength, or make it appear better or of greater value than it was. It was alleged to be misbranded in that the statement "Distributed By Jose A. Elias Sherman New York, N. Y.," borne on some of the boxes in one lot and the statement "Distribuidores Exelusivos Para P. R.: Jose" A. Elias & no.," borne oh all of the boxes in the other lot were false and misleading since they were incorrect. On April 13,1&42, Sunnette Cheese Corporation, claimant, having admitted the allegations of the libels and the cases having been consolidated, judgment of con- demnation was entered and the product was ordered released under bond condi- tioned that it be reworked to bring it into compliance with the law. On July 10, 194% the decree was amended to provide for mixing the product with other cheese and relabeling it under, the supervision of the Food and Drug Administration. CONDENSED MILK
