Not that we need any more rules, but this type of rule is actually precisely the sort of thing the Feds are empowered to do under the Constitution. It’s the first legitimate exercise of the Interstate Commerce clause I’ve seen in a long, long time.

Are you serious? LOL. If our Founders were alive they would ask, What Constitution are your citing?

Please go and study the works of Madison, Jefferson and modern writers such as Sowell and Mark Levin.

Please study and develop an understanding of the true Liberty our Founders enshrined in the United States Constitution.

The FDA, the EPA and 90% of the Federal government is wholly unconstitutional.

As a compliment to the reading those above, I suggest that you read the works of Ludwig von Mises, Milton Friedman, Hayek, Henry Hazlitt and Lysander Spooner.

The problems you worry about can be solved in a much more efficient and less costly manner by the marketplace.

Most of the problems we face today are the direct cause of Federal, State and local parasites who live to control others through force.

These parasites prevent the solutions from coming into existence.

“Are you serious? LOL. If our Founders were alive they would ask, What Constitution are your citing?”

Yes, I’m serious. Not saying it’s a good rule, just that, strictly speaking, it’s Constitutional (unlike most rules/regs the FedGov promulgates), as applied to interstate shipping. The Constitution empowers the Federal government to “regulate Commerce . . . among the several States.” To the extent this rule regulates the shipping of food in interstate commerce, that fits squarely within the interstate commerce clause.
