Question

What role did the book The Jungle by Upton Sinclair have in changing the regulation of food safety in America? Please original answer, don't copy and paste from google. Thanks

Answer 1

The book addressed controversial content and issues of lack of sanitation in food industry because of lack of government intervention and consumers too did not have sufficient knowledge about it.

Meat sales fell and heavy inspection was suggested under new proposed Pure Food, Drug and Meat Inspection Act 1906.

As consequence consumers trust has increased and all companies have to mandatorily list ingredients and nutrition value on packaging with stringent norms for quality assurance .
