HC Deb 25 June 1951 vol 489 c980
13. Sir W. Smithers

asked the Minister of Food to what extent custard powders, ice-cream powders and similar articles contain adulterating material.

Mr. Webb

I have no evidence of the use of adulterating material in any of these products.

Sir W. Smithers

Is it a fact that the by-products of gas works are used in the production of the articles mentioned in this Question?

Mr. Webb

That may well be so, but I have no knowledge of it.

Sir W. Smithers

The right hon. Gentleman ought to know.
