This product contained rodent-hair and metal fragments.
On February 19, 1942, the United States attorney for the District of New 
Jersey filed a libel against 6 cans of fondant at Irvington, N. J., alleging that 
the article had been snipped in interstate commerce on or about January 15 and 
30, 1942, by J. Cane & Sons, Inc., from New York, N. Y.; and charging that 
it was adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in party of a filthy substance, 
and in that it had been prepared under insanitary conditions whereby it might 
have become contaminated with filth. It was labeled in part: (Cans) "100 
Lbs. Net   Regina Brand Fondant."
On July 7,1942, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation was 
entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
