FDA Releases Food Security Measures

More government action: In response to terrorist attacks in the U.S., the FDA has come up with guidelines to protect the American food supply. Among the recommendations: "farms, restaurants and supermarkets should consider criminal background checks on employees, take care to safeguard water supplies and keep a closer eye on the salad bar. In addition, companies should be watchful for employees who stay at work after their shifts end and restrict access to computer control systems, laboratories and sensitive areas of processing plants." The FDA is also considering similar guidelines for food importers.
