American food safety checks have nearly stopped now that the FDA has been cut so bad|y. They can't even follow up on investigating reports anymore.

Why are we importing and allowing dangerous foods to be sold here?

Buddy, if you think this is new....

Well, the important part is at least you realize it now. But there's a reason most other countries don't import US food, our food safety standards have been a joke longer than anyone on Lemmy has been alive.

So by all means, organize to ban US food imports, but you shouldn't have been eating it to begin with.

I'm American, but if other countries apply pressure, we have a better shot of raising the standard.
