Well, I would put it the other way around. Frankly, the realities of 21st century life, as we've all heard, are that many of us eat food in a variety of settings and for a variety of reasons. So I think there's a fundamental public health responsibility to optimize the safety—and I use that term quite deliberately—of the food that is available to us in all of those kinds of settings. I say this because I realize that harried families, two-parent families, and working parents are obviously going to take advantage of the food opportunities that are afforded to them by the hospitality and the food industry. I think we have to help the food and hospitality industries make the healthy choices in the constitution of their products.
