Condemnation of Food
Condemned foodstuffs are disposed of by incineration at the Council's Refuse
Disposal Works
The amount of foodstuffs condemned during the year shows a diminution onprevious
years Ths is probably due to the fact that the large multiple firms are now having
unsound food returned to the main distributing depots for condemnation in bulk. A
large proport on of the food condemned in the Hendon area is accounted for by the
fact that such a multiple firm has a central distributing depot within the Borough
serving many branches throughout London.
