The Jungle, by Upton Sinclair, published 1906.

The law was passed with the meat industries pressure to appease the public over the outcry from the perception of the industry. Many believe that the book was not a truthful account. Upton Sinclair actually was not happy with this outcome, since he was more interested in workers rights and socialism then meat safety.
