Fascinating. Thanks for the information! :) Now I know way more than ever wanted :D

The person was an actual contractor agent of the organization, doing inspections and such flying state to state - that’s why I gave it more credibility than heresay. But look how far it got me. Lol

I was told - but I never fact checked it - that the FDA actually has less than 10 employees. Everyone else is an outside contractor. And if it is true, I do think it needs better organization.
If an agency that has to protect all consumers is organized this way, that’s really worrisome.
