They literally don't care about us. These giant corporations and rich assholes have almost all of the money and power, but it's never enough. They'll relax regulations and standards to increase profits and if people die, oh well!

And funny enough because every supplier has now lowered their standards, it means every manufacturer has to spend more doing checks to see if raw materials are actually up to quality required.

No they don't. They don't care about quality either.

Up to the point that whatever they use or produce doesn't work anymore because of bad parts, or customers die, their stuff gets a reputation like the Ford Pinto and sales tank.

With how many corporations have merged, they don't care anymore. They'll risk the loss because they can pivot to a different brand in their conglomerate.
On anything that matters, try and buy local. The smaller the company, the less they can ignore risks like you mention.

It helps when breast feeding. I downed whole boxes in a day when I was breastfeeding.

We are the only developed country that has allowed salmonella in our chicken supply, after pressure from the industry. Propublica did a piece on it some years back.

you know I heard we were heading towards a food safety crisis and at the time I kinda thought it was a bit fear mongery.
now? not so much.

The bigger danger is chemical contamination in the food supply, and it's harms will rarely if ever be recognized for their sources. Not unless we make them be recognized. Not an easy task with influence operations and social media being completely sold out.
