Ice cream butter fat standard ruled unconstitutional
Judge McHenry of Des Moines district court ruled the state pure food law setting a 12 percent butter fat standard for ice cream unconstitutional. He said the legislature cannot require a minimum butter fat in ice cream, comparing it to dictating soup fat content, and found no health or moral justification. The ruling came in the Sanders and Hutchinson Ice Cream Co. case.

It asserts arbitrary fat requirements limit both manufacturers and consumers, challenging state power over taste and liberty. It notes differing tastes and incongruity with public health rationale.
