      Less regulations means reduced production costs for the oligarch corporate owners. So it is good for them and them only, as every single policy coming from the Trump administration.

          But they have their chefs prepare and cook their foods, they can afford the clean version, they’re still protected from the consequences of their actions because of their money

    … what are we supposed to fucking do? I can stop eating meat but it’s not like I can stop eating altogether. Am I just going to get food poisoning a few times over the course of this nightmare administration? Do I have to wait 4 fucking years to enjoy eating without worrying about getting sick?

    Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

      I worked in an industrial bakery for a while and was so mortified by the cleanliness and safety conditions that I basically only ate fresh vegetables & fruits and dry beans for several months because I was so worried about eating anything that had been under a factory roof

      Was it good for my dietary health? Probably, but I spent a ridiculous amount of time on cooking and food prep and neglected other areas of my life to make up for it.

      Everything sucks.

    I gotta grow my own food now. It is time to break out the off-grid post-apocalyptic survival books for me, I guess. Can’t be too hard, rightttttt!?

    I don’t belive the headline is accurate, based on my reading of the article.

    It looks line they area going to continue reading the food for safety. What they have stopped doing is making sure the tests are run properly.

    I’m not suggesting that this is a noteworthy improvement, nor am I 100% sure my reading is correct. But I prefer the accurate information to the inaccurate.

    The FDA was already fucking worthless. I got severe food poisoning from some grocery store pre-boiled eggs some years ago, and when I asked them to look into it to prevent other people getting sick, they just connected me with the grocery store lawyers who were just useless and defensive.

      He was big on massive deregulation in favour of the industry oligarchs in his previous administration as well. So this one was kinda easy to predict.
