If enough people want a particular level of quality in their food, the market will provide. We have halal beef and kosher wieners and organic food not because some government bureaucracy rammed it down industry's throat, but because people wanted it. If it turns out that people are willing to accept a higher level of risk in their food supply in exchange for lower prices, then maybe it's a choice they should be allowed to make.
