OverviewWhat you put into your body can kill you. This seems obvious for poisonous things, but what if something in your dinner, when not cooked thoroughly, could prove deadly? Food safety has drastically improved in recent decades, but people still get sick from food unnecessarily. Is further food regulation needed? Are local farmers being overregulated? Should imported food receive increased scrutiny? Do genetically modified foods cause allergic responses? This anthology explores these issues related to food safety in America. Includes primary and secondary sources from a variety of perspectives including contributions from the Agricultural Biotechnology Council and Food and Water Watch.
