Extremely likely under any administration that this would still have been a voluntary recall. Voluntary recalls aren't really optional as they will quickly turn into legal proceedings and a court ordered (mandatory) recall. It substaintially reduces the company's legal risk and monetary risk to comply with a voluntary recall. There's a lot more nuance but just from the wikipedia for the way different types of FDA recall strategies work:

The manufacturers or distributors of the product carry out most recalls of products regulated by FDA voluntarily. In some instances, a company discovers that one of its products is defective and recalls it entirely on its own. In others, FDA informs a company of findings that one of its products is defective and suggests or requests a recall. Usually, the company will comply.

If the firm does not recall the product, then FDA can seek legal action under the FD&C Act. These include seizure of available product, and/or injunction of the firm, including a court request for recall of the product.

It's right below the by line before the article starts.

Pretty much agree with you on the rest of your points though. The "we found a planet we can live on!" articles that get recycled on slow news days are always lazy poorly written garbage. This one is particularly lazy and bad.

Watching the Odyssey on the smallest TV you could find on the set Backrooms is really the only way to truly see the film exactly how Nolan originally intended. Unfortunately many of us will have to settle for the profoundly worse experience of going to our local theater or streaming it in our living room.

Fun fact. Both started at the University of Michigan and the latter was named as an homage to the leftist group.

They can also write them a strongly worded letter with a lot of impotently scary language.

It's a justification because he talks in AI word soup in real life. That's the punchline in the comic. His defensive justification is that he sounds like an AI in his email because he just happens to sound like an AI all the time. There's no rationalization required if he didn't use AI to write emails and the justification for him sounding like AI in his emails is that actually sounds like AI all the time.

So Mormonism?

That's wild that 93% of Americans have never driven in New Jersey.

This is a silly thing to complain about unless you didn't read the article. The price increase is specifically quoting a grocer who price per crate went up. The article itself gives you several direct proportional metrics:

According to the latest Consumer Price Index, tomato prices have surged by approximately 40% over the past year

MarginEdge, a firm tracking restaurant prices, reported that grape tomatoes saw a 65% increase in just one month, with prices rising across all tomato varieties.

And finally the context of the title that you're complaining about:

Wayne Humphrey, chief operating officer of Snarf’s, which operates dozens of stores in Colorado, Missouri and Texas, said cases of tomatoes went from costing him $27 to $93 in the space of a year, piled on top of rising expenses for other ingredients including bread and beef, as well as increased labor costs.

It's such a non-issue in this article and the title encapsulates the problem that even the grocers are facing. But I guess you have to run to comments and complain about AmErIcAn MeAsUrEmEnTs when it's vaguely relevant because this is lemmy.

Procrastination Shortcake

Jamaica isn't the part of the US. What're you talking about?
