Oh I’m not contesting our food standards. I just thought the FDA was the gold standards for drug approval. The big issue with American food standards, IMO, is it operates on “prove this is unsuitable for consumption”, instead of the safer method of “prove this is suitable for consumption”

exactly I was commenting on the food end of the spectrum since we only talked about it in a nutrition course, I'm not too sure about drugs but they're probably a lot more rules

Red food dye is a good example. It was only recently banned in the US after many other countries banned the use of it. https://www.fda.gov/food/hfp-constituent-updates/fda-revoke-authorization-use-red-no-3-food-and-ingested-drugs
