Lol this.

With all the fucking monsanto crops, fucked up chicken farms, steroid-pumped bulls on your own soil, you'd think it'd be a better idea to clean up your own act first.



           

NTB ... Non tariff barrier through the use of standards.

Do other countries even go that low with their health standards?

I would support motions like this to help the farmers if they were actually farmers, and not actually megacorporations posing as farmers.

Sounds like a good idea on paper but do food safety standards even exist in the USA? Cows are full of bovine, Chickens born and die in cages and your crops are pumped full of chemicals by Monsanto 666. Enforce regulation in your own country before demand others to do so. Also, stop food dumping. You are destroying the agriculture industries of developing countries. Democrat or Republican, i would support them if they stopped being the bitch for corporations.



Xbox Series, PS5 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

'When the people are being beaten with a stick, they are not much happier if it is called the people's stick'- Mikhail Bakunin

Prediction: Switch 2 will outsell the PS5 by 2030

does that mean food from foreign countries needs more fat, sugar and happy colours to get the permission for the american market in the future?

Yes, they do.  If there weren't, eating would be a lot more risky than it is.  What you're referring to has nothing to do with food safety and more to do with animal rights and how you personally feel about these things being done.  There's not definitive proof that the way we do things has any detrimental side effects to our health.



US health standards are not pretty high, so I don't think it will have much of an effect.
