I got them FDA blues

Well, I did it. I commented on the FDA website about the new FSMA rules. But you know the most depressing part of the whole ordeal was not the rules themselves but the process for commenting; because right at the end of the validation the site prompts you to choose a category of concerned citizen that you belong to. There is no “Farmer” or “Agriculture” or “Guy who has spent the last 30 f***ing year of his life wearing out his knees to feed other people” category. The closest one I found was “Food Industry”, which tells you all you need to know about how the FDA views agriculture.  Man, I could really use a row of something that I could beat the crap out of with a hoe right now. Guess I’ll have to wait until spring. Can’t regulate that.
