Sample No. 292 : Process Cheese.
An informal sample of Process Cheese with Celery was reported
by the Public Analyst to contain moisture exceeding 45%. The
Wholesalers, who had no further stocks in hand of this consignment,
drew the Public Analyst's report to the attention of the Danish dairy
which manufactured the product, and arranged for any future imports
to be examined.
Samples Nos. 296 and 297 : Sausages.
Informal samples of Pork Chipolatas and of Pork Sausages, purchased
from the same manufacturer, were reported by the Public
Analyst to be deficient in meat content. The manufacturers stated
that the recipes used provided for a meat content exceeding 65%,
and previous samples in fact showed that this standard had been
maintained. No further action was taken in this case and later
samples from the same manufacturer proved satisfactory.
Sample No. 355 : Nerve and Strength Tonic.
An informal sample of Children's Nerve and Strength Tonic was
reported by the Public Analyst to be incorrectly labelled as the
formula did not disclose a syrup sugar content. The Suppliers had
not been aware that the Tonic contained syrup sugar, but they agreed
at once to amend the formula label.
Sample No. 366 : Cough and Bronchitis Mixture.
An informal sample of Cough and Bronchitis Mixture was reported
by the Public Analyst to be incorrectly labelled in that the
mixture had been compounded to a very different formula from that
given on the label. The Chemist at once withdrew this article from
sale and checked all other labels at the same time amending the label
for the Cough and Bronchitis Mixture.
Sample No. 368 : German Caviar.
An informal sample of German Caviar was reported by the
Public Analyst not to have been prepared from the roe of sturgeon
but from the lumpfish. The stock was immediately withdrawn from
sale at the time when the retail shop changed ownership, and the new
proprietors discontinued the sale of this article.
