"Grocers' Goods" by Frederick B. Goddard is a family guide written in the late 19th century. This practical work serves as a comprehensive resource for purchasing common grocery items such as flour, sugar, tea, coffee, and various canned goods. The guide aims to educate consumers on the selection and quality of groceries available in American markets, empowering families to make informed choices. The opening of the guide reflects on the evolution of grocery shopping over a span of several decades, contrasting past narrow selections with today's diverse array of products. Goddard describes the modern grocer's role as not only a supplier but a purveyor of quality food, highlighting past concerns regarding food adulteration and the advancements in maintaining food quality and safety. The narrative emphasizes the significant changes in pricing due to improved transportation and cultivation methods, suggesting that families now have better access to a wider variety of wholesome food products than ever before.
