Even as an American, right now I wouldn’t trust the US for shit.
Never should have, this is the country famous for sawdust bread
Easy test. Review a trainload of produce and find it to be unfit for consumption. Sell it to the US. If it’s rejected you know there is still a system in place. If it’s accepted you know to stop all imports.
No
They did before?!
Fuck no - we literally can’t trust the US for anything right now.
Yeah food is something I never trusted the Americans with. As for privacy and stuff from tech, it was a “the devil I know,” situation.
And food safety was questionable before. We stopped buying cantalopes and onions from the US years ago. I rather do without than get ecoli or listeria.
Why should one trust the US with food safety from the start? Have you ever noticed how much artificial gunk they have on the ingredient lists that are illegal in half of the world, sometimes even in China, of all places?
The Ottawa Citizen is American owned media pretending to be Canadian, infiltrating Canadian culture and politics.
Do you disagree with the articles points? Is there any misleading or false information in the article? Do you have an alternative source reporting on this that is acceptable to you for consumption?

I hear you. Attack the points, not the person. In general, agreed.

Not on this particular topic, but I also haven’t looked. See American owned media pretending to be Canadian, infiltrating Canadian culture and politics.
Trump and Musk are intentionally dismantling safeguards from within and also trying to sell their chlorinated chicken to the UK so yeah probably not.
also what AlolanVulpix’ saying +1.

Woot, woot!
Well no, you can’t trust the US for food safety. I live here and am starting to doubt it myself.
Places that are not the usa have known this for decades. Ever wonder why nobody outside the usa buys your milk ? The meat is, uh, something. The list goes on.
Yeah, I spent 20 years living outside the US. The ignorance, even the “good” people, about the rest of the world has been painful to me for most of my adult life. It’s been really weird hearing all this rah-rah USA! USA! shit every time I moved back and just experiencing a place getting shittier every time. I’ve had way too many fellow Americans ask, “If it’s so bad here, where else in the world is as good?” That type of ignorance. Most of us can’t even imagine the idea of there being better countries. Propaganda is a hell of a drug.
No one should trust the USA for ANYTHING at this point.
Well, except maybe chaos and malice.
Wasn’t there an old documentary about this called the Corporation about Fox News burying the story about US milk and Canada being concerned about the cover up?
The answer is no, and has been no for a while.

General health advice.
Stick with as close to organic foods as possible. I know it may not be easy to go 100% organic for certain types of foods, due to the current day market. Which is why I suggested to stay as close as possible.
If you can, go for as close to 100% organic with the following.
a. fruits b. leafy greens/veggies c. organic fish over chicken such as Salmon d. seeds and nuts. Such as Almonds, cashews,
If you’re going to mix your drinks try to do so organically, such as by the slice of lemon on a cup. Tea is generally safe, especially green tea and black tea, which are known to be pretty healthy.
If you eat snacks or candies, you can do so, but check ingrediants that are put into your treats. Make sure there isn’t anything that raises a red flag, then check online to see if it doesn’t reach a red flag with anyone online. If it comes down to it, talk with a nutrition expert if the internet doesn’t seem to answer any question you may have.
edit: what’s wrong with this comment. i’m not saying to buy into any u.s foods, just generally, how to know if a food might be healthy. Regarding food safety.
USDA organic is gonna be something you can get approval for if you buy enough Trump coins. Not gonna be able to trust shit pretty soon.
I always eat organic. I don’t digest rocks, plastics or metals very well.
I didn’t downvote but I imagine it’s due to your comment being somewhat irrelevant to the post and overall discussion.
Your comment isn’t bad, it just might be too loosely tied to the post.
