Mineed Meat.
The sample contained a preservative, the presence of which is contrary
to the provisions of the Preservatives in Pood Regulations 1962. Legal
proceedings were instituted which resulted in a fine of £20 being imposed
with £3.3.0. costs.
Milk Loaf.
Very low milk solids content. Producer has ceased production of
this article.
Pancake Mixture.
This article was an incomplete pancake mixture requiring the addition
of milk to make a pancake. The manufacturers agreed to indicate on the
front panel the need to add milk.
Table Creams.
The label was considered to be inadequate and the term "Table Creams"
not appropriate without the qualification that milk is necessary to produce
the dessert illustrated on the front of the carton. Matter raised
with the manufacturers and after considerable correspondence they stated
that they would redesign the pack when the revised Labelling Regulations
are known.
Beef, potted with Butter.
This jar was not hermetically sealed due to a tiny piece of meat
having lodged between the rubber seal and the glass. No action taken.
Sour Cream Sauce Mix.
Incorrect labelling. The article was an incomplete sauce mix
requiring the addition of milk but the necessity for this was not stated
on the front panel of the container. Also one of the ingredients was
misdescribed. The importers were advised and have temporarily discontinued
the sale of this article until the label has been altered.
Egg and Milk Loaf.
This was not a 'milk' loaf. The bread was made with skimmed milk
powder and contained no whole milk solids. Following correspondence,
the manufacturer agreed to alter the recipe.
