It’s going to be fun when the trump administration kneecaps the FDA and deregulates the food industry. We will get far fewer warnings like this, and dear leader will tout that as evidence that the food supply is much safer.
Already researching how to test locally for heavy metals like lead, other things like cyanide, PFAs, anything else I can think of. Won’t be able to trust our food anymore.
But, in the off chance that some dickhead defunds the FDA, what do we do?
I already try to grow what I can…but I’m not some trad wife who makes lots of money on instagram showing off how everything I ingest comes from my own land. Don’t have that kind of money or time on my hands. Aside from cooking things to recommended temps and washing/refrigerating things as needed, is there more that can be done on a household level?

Any suggestions on where to begin?
Step 1, create the FDA.
Gotcha.
