This desperately calls out for more information on the "famous" poison squads. The FDA itself has more info here: http://www.fda.gov/fdac/features/2002/602_squad.html ... There's even a song chorus.

  "O, they may get over it but they'll never look the same,
   That kind of bill of fare would drive most men insane.
   Next week he'll give them mothballs, a la Newburgh or else plain;
   O, they may get over it but they'll never look the same."
   Chorus from "Song of the Poison Squad" Lew Dockstader's Minstrels, October 1903
