Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““ Food; sale of adulterated or misbranded prohibited; the terms ‘ food ’, ‘ adulterated ’, and ‘ misbranded ’ defined. “ No person shall have, sell or offer for sale in The City of New York any food which is adulterated or misbranded. The term food as herein used shall include every article of food and every beverage used by man and all confectionery. Food as herein defined shall be deemed adulterated: * * * “(5) If it is colored or coated or polished or powdered, whereby damage is concealed or it is made to appear better than it really is.””
