unfit for human consumption.

Cream Iced Cake
This sample was submitted as the result of a complaint
that it contained a small blackish cylindrical body resembling
rodent excreta.
The analyst reported that the foreign body consisted
essentially of a mass of charred dough and there was no
evidence of rodent excreta.
No further action was taken.
Chicken Supreme
One can of Chicken Supreme was submitted to the analyst
as an informal sample.
The analyst reported that this consisted of a mixture of
chicken and vegetables in a white sauce, and was found to
contain only twenty per cent. meat. He expressed an opinion
that the meat content was low for such an article and stated
that in his opinion the meat content should be at least 35
per cent.
This matter was taken up with the manufacturers, who
expressed surprise, and stated that they endeavoured to maintain
a good quality article, and requested that further sample
be taken as a cross-check.
Two further samples were taken, each sample consisting
of three cans each from two different batches, and the code
numbers on each can were noted.
