Food Safety Acts

Meat Inspection Act of 1906 - Inspired by the complaints of the public and by The Jungle by Upton Sinclair, the Meat Inspection Act of 1906 decreed that the preparation of meat shipped over state lines would be subject to federal inspection.















Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 - Made to follow up the Meat Inspection Act, the PFDA prevented the adulteration and mislabeling of foods and pharmaceuticals.
