Annatto, caramel, and coal tar colors: your milk might contain any of them. Bruce's manual teaches detection of the common food adulterants, starting with dairy products and the artificial coloring matter dyed into them, starch and gelatin included. Chemistry in defense of the dinner table, test by test. Examine the groceries the way 1900 had to.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
