Food Adulteration Debate Brightens Chicago Hearing
In Chicago on May 6 the pure food commission heard Mr. Lewis classify adulteration into two main types: coloring for appearance and misrepresentation of value. He urged a national pure food law and a permanent commission to certify purity with a government stamp. Dr Wiley described fraudulent practices including fish packed in oil and oysters, and warned against foreign stamps deceiving buyers. He noted common use of horse meat in Europe and occasional turtle sales, with adulterated foods harming health falling into coloring and preserving categories.
