The lack of tracking of foodborne illnesses because in the US farmers markets are mostly exempt from regulations and tracking, doesn’t correlate to safer food.
I mean sure, since this US MAGA administration gutted the FDA’s already stretched ability to inspect the thousands of factories but the blanket statement that unregulated farmers markets are more trustable than ANY given government regulatory body, which is how I interpreted the statement, not US Republican regulatory body is incorrect, especially from someone that has a lemmy.ca after their name.
I guess we should start rounding up all the “lemmy.ca” people. Any other generic groups you’d like to add to the list? We’ve got enough torches and pitchforks for everybody.
Yeah. Those raw milk sellers are the paragon of food safety.
