Three talks by Dr Magnus Pyke , Secretary of the British Association for the Advancement of Science. 1: Fit to Eat
One hundred years ago, the Food and Drugs Act decreed that British food must be of the ' nature, substance and quality demanded.'
Throughout the century, new regulations have meant that punishment falls on anyone adding, for example, cyclamates to ginger beer or not adding methionine to artificial oxtail. Shall we next jail people for eating stale bread, or shall we reflect on the purpose of our endeavours to achieve even higher technological standards?
