PTOMAINE POISONING
FROM CANNED FOODS
NOT LIKELY, CLAIM

There is no such thing as ptomaine
poisoning, authorities claim today.
What has been called that was mere
ly n arrangement of the stomach
caused by the entrance of foods which
had acquired injurious organisms
through too long a contact with the
air. The illness resulting therefrom
used to be attributed to canned foods.
But the fact is, the foods packed in
the great modern canneries are the
safest foods. even safer than the So
called fresh foods. This is because the
canned products have been perfectly
sterilized. the air being forced out,
and the contents of the hermetically
sealed can have then been thoroughly
and scientifically cooked.
