“The government shouldn’t dictate what I eat“ is a misrepresentation of the government’s role in food regulation. They are setting minimum quality and safety standards so that you can make informed decisions among things that aren’t likely to kill or otherwise hurt you. They aren’t dictating your diet. They’re putting up guardrails around the groups making what goes into your diet.
While we are on the subject, this is one of the great ironies of the “MAHA” movement (cringe). They all talk about how the food in Europe is so much fresher and better for you and not processed yada yada. Do you know why Europe has better food than we do? Mountains and mountains of regulations. Which as we all know is anathema to conservatism.

We’re in a climate catastrophe, and the meet industry is one of the major contributing polluters causing it.
So it makes sense to ban factory farming, because it’s killing us.
