Public response to revelations such as the one in this excerpt led to the establishment of regulations that were eventually enforced by the Food and Drug Administration.
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Sinclair’s novel The Jungle made a wider spread public outcry against violation of the health and hygiene conditions in meat packaging industry. As a result of this public response government passed the Federal Meat inspection Act 1906.
This Act is enforced by the department of Food and drug Administration. Selling adulterated meat products is made an offence as per the act and this also prescribed the strict sanitary conditions to be complied by the sellers working in the industry.
