Option C, the public was outraged and demanded legislative reform from the government, is the right answer.  

Upton Sinclair's (Muckraking Journalist) socialist policy forced him to write a Novel called “The Jungle” in 1906, which presented the harsh conditions and exploited lives of the immigrants, mainly in the Meat- packing industry of the United States. His primary purpose for writing this Novel was to advance Socialism in the U.S. As the people of the United States came to know about the actual condition of the workers in the meat packing industry thus they became outrageous and demanded the federal government to pass legislative reforms. Therefore, the impact of the book and the demands of the people resulted in the “ Pure Food and Drug Act” passed by the government fer months later.
