In 1906, in the year that Benito Vela was born, author Upton Sinclair exposed the public-health threat of the meat-packing industry in his book The Jungle.

There was such an outcry that legislation was passed to regulate meat packing. Sinclair said " "I aimed at the public's heart, and by accident I hit it in the stomach."
