This used to be a crime … now it’s food business as usual

People who used to adulterate or lie about food ingredients were jailed – assuming they made it to a trial.

It wasn’t unusual in saner times for people who adulterated food to be lynched or at least be on the receiving end of a good riot.

No more.

If you want to make wholesome food in your home kitchen and sell to your neighbors you will be subject to so many regulations, it will make your head spin.

On the other hand, if you can buy the right lawyers, lobbyists and politicians, you can package the equivalent of sawdust, glue and house paint as food and laugh all the way to the bank.

Corporations uber alles.
