Feds: "here is a complex and expensive 170-point checklist for how you must guarantee that not one atom is present in your sesame-free products, on pain of death"
Companies: "sesame-free products? what sesame-free products?"
The Fed idiot wannabe do-gooders tried to step on private companies and tell them how to do their jobs in an unreasonable & absurd way, supposedly to protect people with allergies. The predictable result was that food producers calculated that the financial gain from serving that small minority of customers wasn't justified by the enormous costs & risks of attempting to comply with the new regulations, so they eliminated all the products the regulations would apply to by - for example - adding sesame flour into products which formerly had none.
Reagan was right: "The nine most terrifying words in the English Language are: 'I'm from the government, and I'm here to help.'"
Democrats care about academic lobbyists not corporate ones for many parts of the deep state. Regulatory capture is a problem with some agencies, but with others like the FDA it's fart sniffing academics & activists capture.

You'd expect corporate lobbyists would have raised objections before the draft was finished.

Based on the company responses, or lack thereof, they're too afraid to openly stand up to the moral busybodies.
