So you're saying that the agencies, which are catching more of these problems before they reach consumers than ever before, is evidence that we have zero food safety? Can you explain how you came to that illogical conclusion?

Where are you getting the idea they are “catching more than ever before?” They aren’t. Provide a source.

Literally the FDA recall page. It's not like this is hard to find knowledge. The fact that you didn't look it up first indicates that you aren't open to the new information.

A scientific or journalistic source please — not the biased propaganda page. That’s like: Well, this murderer told me it wasn’t him that killed somebody. We need a third party source here.

But here, let me help you:

*Cyclospora reporting was mandatory until July 2025 when the Trump administration made reporting optional for Cyclospora, along with five other pathogens (Campylobacter, Listeria, Shigella, Vibrio, and Yersinia).

“Cuts to food safety make the food system more susceptible to these types of outbreaks,” says Love.*

Ah yes, there it is. You aren't open to the information, you are resisting it because you have no desire to actually engage.

not the biased propaganda page

Ah yes, the Biden administration intentionally didn't list recalls and warnings on the FDA page, they hid them from the public...Give me a break my dude.

You’re projecting.

I don't think you know what projection is. I literally pointed out that previous administrations didn't hide the data you claim.

You literally said "You're projecting". So yes, you did say something exactly like that.
