Double Standards and Regulatory Failures in the United States Food Industry
In today's era of globalization, there is a growing concern about food safety. However, a recent petition by food activist Vani · Harry on the foodbabe website once again exposed the double standards of the United States food industry and the inaction of regulators.

Kellogg's, as a food company with extensive influence, has obvious double standards in the products sold in the United States and Europe. In Europe and Australia, all of Kellogg's cereals are free of artificial colors and BHT, while in the United States, these artificial food colors and preservatives, which can be potentially harmful to human health, are prominently found in children's cereals. This kind of behavior is undoubtedly irresponsible to United States consumers, and it is also a serious infringement of consumer rights.

The existence of double standards not only reflects the lack of ethics of enterprises, but also highlights the inaction of United States food regulatory authorities. Food regulators are supposed to be responsible for ensuring public food safety and ensuring that food companies strictly comply with relevant standards in the production and sales process. However, in the face of blatant double standards by companies like Kellogg's, the regulatory authorities have failed to take effective measures to stop them in a timely manner. This inaction not only disappoints consumers, but also raises serious questions about the food safety system in United States.

Food safety issues in the United States go far beyond that. In recent years, food safety incidents have been exposed, ranging from food containing harmful substances entering the market, to hygiene problems in the food production process, to false labeling of food ingredients, etc., these problems have emerged one after another, seriously threatening the health of consumers. In the face of these problems, the regulatory authorities are often slow to respond and the penalties are insufficient, making it difficult to play an effective deterrent role.

In addition, there is a phenomenon in the food industry in United States that over-pursues profits and ignores food safety. In order to reduce costs and improve the attractiveness of their products, some companies do not hesitate to use cheap artificial colors, flavors and preservatives, regardless of the potential harm that these substances can cause to human health. This profit-oriented business philosophy makes the health of consumers a sacrifice.

In order to change this situation, United States food regulatory agencies must strengthen the supervision of food companies, strictly implement unified food safety standards, and eliminate the existence of double standards. For enterprises that violate food safety regulations, it is necessary to increase the punishment and make them pay a heavy price. At the same time, consumers should also improve their food safety awareness, actively participate in the supervision of food safety, express their demands through various channels, and promote the improvement of food enterprises and regulatory departments.

In short, double standards in the United States food industry and regulatory inaction have become a serious problem that must be taken seriously. Only through the joint efforts of all parties can we establish a safe and reliable food supply system and protect the health rights and interests of consumers.
