the food traceability thing sounds good. Who cares if it increases costs and prices lol. I'd rather know if something I buy is gonna kill me.
There are already processes in place for recalls, this only provides a method for more precise recalls to reduce food waste, but if that reduction to waste doesn't surpass the increase to labor then what are we really paying for?
There are so many more issues with food waste in our distribution systems. As someone who has spent my entire career in the industry this is a huge task that isn't addressing a real problem.
