Phew! I was getting EXTREMELY ANGRY at these SOCIALISTS using MY TAX DOLLARS to Inspect FOOD! I'm MUCH Happier Now that those SAME DOLLARS are being used to pay Elon Musk for KILLER SATELITES Instead!

At least we'll be able to control the weather, right? RIGHT?!

Can’t wait to die of a disease in my food because it’s unavoidable. Thank you republicucks, this will surely help other immunocompromised/auto immune disease people.
Goodbye chat
Trump is going to need a food taster. If not for poisoning, then for this.
Ironically, still poisoning, just not targeted.
Relax, it's not as bad as it sounds. Yes, of course, you will be sick more often, and you might die sooner, but you can take really easy steps to prevent at least some diseases. Cook everything you prepare thoroughly, no rare steak, no juicy whatever. Avoid prepared/processed foods. Don't drink from the tap, don't use ice cubes.
If you have any questions, just ask any other third world nation.
Some FDA employees have been working on a possible shift of the agency's routine food efforts to states for years, one current and one former official said, which could free up resources to focus on higher priority and foreign inspections. The FDA already outsources some routine food inspections through contracts with 43 states and Puerto Rico.
Interesting, so this isn’t just a Trump thing? And the plan hasn’t to end testing food, rather to shift who is testing it.
