No, that's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is that before we make any decisions on food safety policies, we need to understand the macroeconomic repercussions of any policy. We need to understand that food is not as much a priority as it was a generation ago. Food is competing against trips to Cancun and 52-inch plasma TVs. We have to be real. We have to acknowledge that. It's a reality.
