Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

There's also the precautionary principle, which I think is the best way to approach food and drug safety: the thing in question has to be proven to be safe and contingencies have to be in place in case of harm before being released. This is opposed to the more US approach to food and drug safety, which requires proof that the thing is unsafe to proceed with regulation.
