The Poison Squad Part I: The Many Ways We Made Our Food Entirely Unfit for Human Consumption

from Teach Me Something

The Poison Squad series is the dirty, disgusting, and at times quite nauseating tale of how the United States finally passed their first national food, water, and drug safety laws. In part 1, we'll introduce you to the hero of the story, Harvey Wiley, and we'll begin to explain the gross and dangerous things that people used to do to food.
