Over the past decade, the American people have been noticing a recurring theme in their daily news television programs. Reports of food-born illness outbreaks have been making appearances at a such a rapid frequency that the United States Government now feels the need to step in and take control of the situation. On January 4, 2011, President Barack Obama signed the Food Safety Modernization Act into law; subsequently setting new food safety standards that will ideally reduce the appearance rates of the food born illnesses that have been wreaking havoc on the American people.

I saw this when it was signed...the only concern I have is that the FDA regulates everything to do with our food, and I think I just don't trust them. At all! We'll see, though. Maybe things will get better. :)
