Of all industries in the United States, the food industry must in
fact be the most regulated by law. If it is not, its competition
for this distinction goes unnoticed. All phases of the food
industry are subjected to some control by law, beginning with the
land food is grown on and the oceans from which it is harvested.
Seed and plant stock are sometimes subjected to control such as to
the nutritional value of the foods they produce. Acreages of
agricultural crops, the quantities of foods to be produced, are
regulated. As foods are produced, whether from plants or animals,
the substances applied to increase yields or provide protection
from pests are controlled to insure safe use. As foods enter and
pass through the huge marketing system they are scrutinized from
beginning to end by regulatory agents operating under authority of
food laws. Those foods which are transformed through various
technologies into today's thousands of consumer products are
watched carefully to insure the appropriateness and safety of added
ingredients, not all of which are natural, and the adequacy of
processing, packaging and storage. Finally, the representation of
foods to consumers through labeling and advertising is controlled
to make sure it is accurate and sufficiently informative.
