While the FDA getting gutted certainly plays a significant role in this last mile, you’re ignoring that the bigger elephant in the room across administrations is the (literally) shitty state of our food system, that’s been allowed to fester for decades.

Do you really think previous regulations were anything more than a woefully inadequate bandage on a deeper problem?
