WARNING.
It has been reported to us that Edam Cheese has been imported
in this Colony of a quality containing only 20% fat, instead of 40% as a good Edam Cheese should contain.
Every Cheese bears a government label indicating the percentage of fat, but there is no such indicatica on the tin, so that a buyer has to buy a tin and open first before he knows whether he gets the value tor his money.
In order to protect our interesis as well as those of our customers we have decided to indicate on the tins the percentage of fat, of which kindly take note.
The following are copies of the government labels.
