I'm not sure exactly what would be effected, but I've been trying to just keep things simple, and avoid anything that i don't make myself. Like no pre-packaged foods at all. It's a pain in the ass since it takes more time, but making stuff in bulk and freezing it for later is making it doable for me.

I'm curious if anyone else is really worried about this stuff. Like RFK is a maniac who knows what sort of stuff he could start allowing in foods. Is anyone else taking similar steps, or do you think I'm over reacting to it?

You should be very aware of the sources for any food that is typically inspected also.

Meats can be easily contaminated in uninspected processing plants.

Fruits and vegetables can be fertilized with human feces that is contaminated with things like e coli. This is particularly insidious when you consider how often these items are consumed raw.

Working with co-op farm organizations in your area that have a good reputation can help mitigate this.

Lastly, you can grow as much of your own food as possible, this can be a pretty low effort endeavor with things like kratky method hydroponics. Community gardens are great.

If you have some dirt you can grow some food.
