Reaction and Aftermath

                                          After the Pure Food and Drug Act was passed the FDA began to play a much more active role in actually regulating products including drugs for troops, medicines for pharmacies, and vitamins for the average consumer.

"The Pure Food and Drug Act and the Meat Inspection Act divided administration of food regulation into two bureaus. The Bureau of Chemistry, headed by Wiley, administered most provisions of the Pure Food and Drug Act. The Bureau of Animal Industry, led by Daniel Salmon, carried out federal meat inspections. This division of administrative oversight persists to this day. The USDA still inspects beef and poultry, whereas the FDA inspects most other foods" -Daniel P. Carpenter
