3994. Adulteration of candy. U. S. v. 6 Boxes and 2 Cartons of Candy. Default 
decree of condemnation and destruction. (F. D. C. No. 7602. Sample Nos. 
80613-B, 80614-E.)
This product contained rodent hairs.
On June 2, 1942, the United States attorney for the Southern District of 
Indiana filed a libel against 6 5-pound boxes and 2 30-pound cartons of candy 
at Richmond, Ind., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate com- 
merce on or about May 5, 1942, by the Ohio Confection Co. from Cleveland, 
Ohio; and charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted wholly 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. The article 
was labeled in part: "Light Chocolate Covered Cocoanut Marshmallows," or 
"Rainbow Mix."
On July 10, 1942, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed. „
