Answer:

Pure Food and Drug Act was passed on 30th June 1906 by the U.S Government to regulate the safety, labeling, and interstate shipment of food and medicine.

Answer Statement: A

Explanation:

Pure Food and Drug Act

On 30th June 1906, the U.S. Government passed the first of its kind and specific rule related to the safety, labeling and interstate shipment of food and medicine to reduce the selling of mislabeled products by manufacturers, adulteration of food with poisonous and unhealthy ingredients and misleading the consumers with fake claims.

This act was termed as the "Pure Food and Drug Act" that raised the demand of quality, purity and loyalty in food and medicine manufacturing as well as selling.

By the mid 90s, numerous amendments were done to improve the stature of the act and improve the situation in the food and pharmaceutical market that strongly affected the process of preparing packaged food, labeling and their adulteration with unhealthy and poisonous contents.
