In comparison, there are still health issues when it comes to food, but not so much the packing. The way food is being produced and packaged is still a common problem. Today there is more cross contamination compared to having inaccurate labels that are causing most of these illnesses and problems. Without paying attention to what is going on people are getting very sick causing more rules or acts to be set into place.

The problems they were having back in the 1900s were the main issue back then was, unsanitary conditions, and adulterated products in the food and drug industries. The solutions that were founded and put into action were the Pure Food and Drug Act, which helped to improve the safety and quality of food. The Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 was a U.S. law that aimed to ensure sanitary preparation and accurate labeling of consumable goods. It prohibited the sale of adulterated and misbranded food and drugs, marking the first federal regulations to protect American consumers' health. The act required accurate ingredient disclosure and prohibited harmful ingredients.

There were solutions found such as Upton Sinclair's 1906 novel, The Jungle, which exposed the poor working conditions and unsanitary practices in the Chicago meatpacking industry. The book drew attention to labor exploitation and food safety, leading to the Pure Food and Drug Act and the Meat Inspection Act. These acts established federal regulations for sanitary processing and accurate labeling, significantly improving consumer protection and food safety standards in the United States.

There were two main reformers who helped solve this problem. One was President Theodore Roosevelt who had a part in this when he was very committed to helping solve public health and safety. He also required the workers packing meat to properly and accurately label the product to ensure no confusion and safety. Theodore Roosevelt signed the Pure Food and Drug Act. The second main person was Upton Sinclair who wrote the 1906 novel, The Jungle. This exposed all the dangers of the conditions. After people started reading this they were outraged and this caused the release of the Pure Food And Drug Act and the Meat Inspection Act on June 30, 1906.

To help solve this, there were many organizations that are helping solve this problem. There are health organizations and researching groups that are finding many solutions of how to keep the environment safe while also keeping all the people safe. A few examples of the organizations helping are the NIH (National Institutes of Health), CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), WHO (World Health Organization) and the ARPA-H (Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health).

The problems they are having now is with food with kids and how much or how little a kid is eating, not a lot about how it is being packaged. The food is not the problem however because they are eating too much they could get severely sick and if they aren't eating enough they could also get severely sick too. There is a lot of cross contamination with all the meat and other food when being cooked. In some cases there are diseases, bacteria and more that could be inside or around the food.

The solutions found included many safe and clean environments and making routine check-ins to keep the food packing safe and not contaminated with other food to cause any sickness. Now with technology they are using tools for a mobile inspection. They are also making sure when meat or any food is being packaged, hands and materials are safe and sanitized. Making sure there is no cross contamination is hard if you're not paying attention to what you're doing, so making sure you're paying attention helps a lot.

Back then the meat packing industry was exposed by a book for the way their information was false and the many diseases their packaging caused. Now they are making sure the employees are trained and they are safely packing not only meat but all food products.

The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) was created back at the beginning of the start of these problems and to this day they are still being used to make sure the food is safe. Food and any other products need to go through them to make sure they are cleared from any incorrect information and more. From 1906, the Pure Food and Drug Act to today they have been protecting people from unsafe and incorrect labels on products.
