Trump would roll back food safety regulations

http://thehill.com/regulation/healthcare/296152-trump-says-he-would-eliminate-food-safety-regulations

Donald Trump intends to roll back food safety regulations if he wins the White House in November.

In a fact sheet Thursday, the campaign highlighted a number of "specific regulations to be eliminated" under the GOP nominee's economic plan, including what they called the "FDA Food Police."

“The FDA Food Police, which dictate how the federal government expects farmers to produce fruits and vegetables and even dictates the nutritional content of dog food,” it read.

“The rules govern the soil farmers use, farm and food production hygiene, food packaging, food temperatures and even what animals may roam which fields and when,” the statement continued. "It also greatly increased inspections of food 'facilities,' and levies new taxes to pay for this inspection overkill."


Lord only knows what they'd start putting in Cheetos.

Plastic tastes good.

How can you have your pudding if you don't eat your lead?

Ratshit is organic too.

Arsenic in every pot.

If you can't spell it, it must be good.
