FDA apparently believes that selfish businessmen are in the business of killing their customers and, therefore, only the benevolent feds can stop this evil. Raw oysters from the Gulf of Mexico are going to be under new regulations that will cause hardship for those in the oyster business. In a telling comment from one such owner of a multi-generation oyster business, he taste-tests his own oysters every single day but will not be able to afford to meet the FDA’s new arbitrary standards. Clearly, such a monster must be stopped!
