In the early 1900s, America’s food supply was a toxic gamble, formaldehyde in milk, arsenic in candy, and borax in meat. No labels. No safety checks. No laws. Then, one government chemist, Dr. Harvey Wiley, recruited twelve men to risk their health eating poisoned meals to prove the danger. Their fight led to the creation of the FDA, an agency meant to protect the public, but now accused of protecting corporate interests instead.
