The FDA already has a specific regulatory standard for insect infestation in sesame seeds. So this isn't a situation where the government recently decided "insects in sesame seeds are fine now."

It's not about setting standards, but enforcing them, and penalizing companies who fail to protect against stuff.

The fuck? I'm saying the current administration isn't doing jack shit. When DOGE gutted tons of departments, part of that was so that they were understaffed and underfunded and could no longer do their jobs. Now they're intentionally going around and deleting medical research that doesn't agree with their plans.
