Pure Food, Drink, and Drug Act  

Definición

  • As late as the closing decades of the 19th century, no effective government legislation existed to protect the consumer against hazardous foods, drinks, and drugs. Contamination and adulteration and fraudulent advertising and labeling were so widespread that consumers could not determine which products were safe to use.
