RFK Jr. to change FDA rule that allows companies to hide food ingredient safety data
Kennedy said the move is intended to improve consumer safety by increasing transparency in what is in the food people consume, especially ultraprocessed foods.
I think this is a great move. I now that most of Lemmy won't even read it, and jump straight to "He just wants us all to have covid and polio!!!" comments.
But this change actually makes people have to answer for their ingredients and letting us know if it's safe or not.
Funny thing is that most of Lemmy was against ultraprocessed foods until conservatives started being against them. But now all of a sudden, Lemmy is all, "Leave our food alone!" lmao
Even a clock with brain worms is right once in a while.
The basis of what he wants is not ridiculous, the conclusions he makes are. More transparency? Good. Less processed stuff? Good. Having parties to spread measles to inoculate kids instead of using a proven safe and effective vaccine? Batshit insane.
I’m a big fan of this. I eat pretty healthy. I don’t eat a lot of processed garbage. I think you should know exactly what you are eating.
Sometimes YouTube “cooking” videos will pop up and Jesus, if that’s what the average person eats, no wonder we have an obesity problem.
Yep, I'm fitter than I've ever been in my life. It's actually pretty simple. Just eat regular portions, simple ingredients. All this processed crap is what has made the US so unhealthy.
I assume Lemmy will hate the change just because Trumps administration is in charge, but if Dems would have made this change, Lemmy would be jumping for joy.
