Excerpt from Some Forms of Food Adulteration and Simple Methods for Their Detection

Since the middle of the last century the subject of food adulteration has attracted a constantly increasing amount of attention. In this country very little was done in this line until about 1880. In 1881 the Division of Chemistry began the study of food adulteration, and since then has given a great deal of time to the subject.

Since 1898 the origin and place of manufacture of the foods studied by the Bureau have been carefully noted, and special attention has been given to imported foods. In 1883 the first practicable food-inspection law in the United States was enacted in Massachusetts. Since that time other States have enacted and enforced food laws until at the time of this writing (1906) twenty-live States are seriously attempting to regulate the character and quality of the foods sold in their markets. In three additional States laws relating to the purity of dairy products are enforced, and in several others a beginning has been made.

Food legislation has received much attention abroad and the more highly civilized foreign countries have efficient food laws and enforce them rigidly. The subject of the purity of foods is more widely studied in the United States now than at any previous time. The people as a whole are better informed on the subject than ever before, and there is a constantly increasing demand for definite information. In response to a very large number of inquiries regarding the matter this bulletin has been prepared as a popular statement regarding the nature and extent of food adulteration, and includes simple tests by which the housekeeper or retail dealer may determine some of the more prevalent forms of adulteration practiced.

The demand for information on this subject is now very general and, as is often the case when public interest is deeply aroused, there is an unfortunate tendency toward exaggeration which frequently amounts to sensationalism. Such an attitude is to be deplored, and unless it is checked must sooner or later react unfavorably. It is not unusual to speak of some of our typical foods as poisoned, and of food manufacturers as poisoners.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book shines a light on the insidious subject of food adulteration, a topic that the author asserts most people remain woefully ignorant of. The author draws attention to the severe health concerns that may arise from unsuspectingly consuming food products that have been tampered with, and they do so in a way that is both accessible and free of sensationalism. Rather than employ scare tactics, the author prefers to patiently outline the various red flags that can indicate a food product has been adulterated, with the ultimate goal of empowering readers to safeguard their own health and that of their families. While not intended for scientists, the author has applied their expertise in the field of chemistry to provide a foundational understanding of the key principles of food preservation and the chemical processes that can render wholesome foods dangerous for public consumption. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781332197613_0
