Any food safety problems occur at processing plants. But more than 50% of processing takes place at the local grocery store. If you really want food safety, then do what Wal*Mart does ... irradiate food and place in special packaging. It kills all bacteria, keeps red meat nice and bright red, and the shelf life is more than doubled.

This does not take a huge food safety bill and more government workers that will not do anything to improve food safety. It requires that all processing plants irradiate the food. Local processing can be done as always. Then lets see what people buy. I would bet they go with local processing even if they know it is not as safe.

Again ... give people the choice. Don't foce government regulation on us. Attack the problem (if there is one) where the problem exists with as little government intervention as possible. Then give people the ability to choose and make their own decision.

If people don't believe something is safe they will not buy it. And I don't need government telling me what health insurance I should have.
