Judging by the backlash I saw online on that butter recall because of the missing “contains milk” statement, it seems like few will miss the regulations.

In the long run, looser regulations could prove to be a Darwinian solution to most current issues.

There’s some that have coloration to them to show when they’re used up. Those can be toxic.
