Food and Drug Act is Passed
By Tariq Smith
Effective Jan. 1st 1907
The Food & Drug Act has just been passed. All companies must place labels stating EXACTLY what is in your product. Any product that fails to have these labels will be taken off of shelves and the company will be at risk of being sued and or fined a sum of money. This also applies to drugs as well. Any and Every Drug placed out on the market must have a label due to recent reports of peoples health being in danger. This has been the start of a new era. As of Jan. 1st 1907 every time you go to buy a product off of shelves, it will have one of these labels on it
This will help peoples dietary needs as well as make sure allergies do not come into play. Certain people have history of bad health conditions such as heart attacks and strokes. With this label the FDA can make sure the consumer is aware of the ingredients and not put anyone at risk of serious health problems. Also this prevents many lawsuits based upon injuries due to ignorance. If people try to sue major companies based on a certain ingredient consumption then they better think twice because an excuse can no longer be “I didn’t know” because the ingredients are always going to be on there.
The FDA has made sure that every consumer will no longer have ignorance when buying a product. Hopefully the world will take note of what they are doing and alter its food distribution with the same respect and kindness that the FDA is treating America with.
