[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dr. Robert Califf? Fabulous. He isn't not sending out food recalls, is he? What do you think RFK is going to do or not going to do?[/quote]

The last couple months of food recalls are fabulous?[/quote]

The food recall people are in food safety, not agricultural standards. Weakening govt could mean that standards on farms and ag inspections are less frequent and less thorough than the already problematic standards AND the agencies that test food for safety have fewer resources to do so.

The current system doesn't work. Inspectors write reports and those reports are regularly ignored. New laws, increased budgets, and more employees isn't going to do anything except increase the number of ignored reports.

[quote]USDA took virtually no action — allowing Boar’s Head to continue business as usual at its chronically unsanitary Virginia plant — despite finding repeated serious violations. The Virginia plant should have been shut down years ago[/quote]

The USDA knew about this plant. It ignored the problem. I guess they hoped it would just get better. The current system is staffed by people without any will to do anything. They collect their paycheck and go home. And don't eat deli meat. [/quote]
