    Companies still have to feed people and not get them sick. Or no return customers.

    This is a stupid ass decision but trust the profit lines here. Companies will not want to poison their customers, it’s just bad for business.

      It’ll be like the good old days before the FDA when the warning sign that food was contaminated was people dying and companies regularly put additives like sawdust in food because it made their profits better.

      We tried self-regulation of all these industries. That’s why we created government regulation.

      No they’ll just add things that won’t kill them until they’ve extracted plenty of repeat purchases from them.
